1,what my mother doesnt know,What My Mother Doesn't KnowWhat this book is about is a teenage girl who's name is Sophie the other characters in the book are Sophie's mom her two best friends Rachel and Grace and then there's Murphy and his parents and of course Sophie. The story takes place at mainly Sophie's house but there is also other places to like Murphy's house the Art Museum. The plot of the story is that Sophie has been really interested in boys so first she went out with Dylan and then it was Chaz and now its Murphy and all this time her mom doesn't know that she has been going out with any of them. The point of view is first person because she is referring to her self as I. Then the theme of the story is that keeping things from your parents isn't always the right thing to do even though it might seem like it. The conflict is what Sophie's mom doesn't know about her.,16150
1,BBC Classic Mystery Series,"This is a well produced and acted British murder series which illistrates the class differences still in existence today in modern England. Havers. a working class girl with a broad accent and no polish teamed with a member of the aristocracy, plummy accent and public schooled (ie private in England!) Really well done, from the fine books by Elizabeth George. Beautiful scenery in some and always interesting plots. A first rate series and well worth watching.",26841
0,Pointless,I am very disappointed with this toy and wish I had returned it immediately after opening. The stacker has practically zero functionality as the lid comes off almost immediately without any way to secure it to the base. Any child will just take off the lid instead of fiddling with stacking holes. Major design flaw!!!,11953

1,Beautiful,"It's not as neon pink as the picture shows. It's exactly what I wanted: a thin, but not compact-size ESV Bible without commentary. Absolutely perfect for my Bible classes and everyday life. I'm certain I'll have this Bible for a long time.",31467
0,I'm sure it must get better,I've had this book for years. I can never get even half way through it. I just picked up again over the weekend thinking I'm a few years older and maybe my taste have changed...maybe I can get into this book. It's not workng.,835

1,Excellent product,"I'm not certain if some people received products from a different manufacturer or lot, but my product is excellent. It is very sturdy, strong construction and has tested as being accurate in it's measuring ability. My original battery arrived working as well. I've had no issues with it at all. For the price, this thing was a steal. I love having the nice case as well.*note-it only comes with instructions and an extra battery, not a certificate like another post listed.",13662

1,The Crowning Achievement,"Wow! Is it any wonder Peter Gabriel left the band after this? How in the world could they ever top this? I'm sure Gabriel knew not even to try.In an era of concept albums and rock operas (Tommy, Quadrophenia, Thick As A Brick,) this one outdoes them all. The album actually leaves you exhausted after listening too it, as so much genius is poured into every track. It's incredible that Invisible Touch and The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway were made by the same band. But they really weren't. This album was the end of the ""real"" Genesis.",10067
1,A Nice Break for the Horse,"This film is not as sloppily produced as some have suggested here. In fact, the performances and the production are quite good. However, what makes this effort so remarkable is the playlist. Neil has assembled a great sampling of his large body of work that doesn't rely too heavily on his acoustic set from the Silver and Gold video nor the Crazy Horse standards. ""Words"" is a definite standout, as is ""Unknown Legend"" and ""Razor Love"". Neil also manages a pretty funny ad-lib after a bit of feedback interrupts his intro to ""Daddy Went Walkin'"". If you're any kind of fan, you shouldn't be disappointed.",32764
0,Don't waste your time!,"This book is unbelieveably bad. I am still reading it and I can't believe it. I am on page 300 something and am determined to finish it but I don't know why. This has to be the WORST book I have ever read. I will NEVER read another one of Sara Paretsky's books again, EVER.",28677
0,Adequate,"The best word that I can come up with to describe this camera is adequate. I did not expect this camera to be spectacular, but I did think that the camera would take decent pictures in dark places. I was wrong! This camera requires a certain amount of lighting. You can change the the brightness of the camera but that only helps a little. The pictures tend to be somewhat grainy if taken a few feet away. I did not try using the mp3 player, nor will I ever because I have no use for it(i have an ipod). I did end up getting a better but more expensive camera. Overall, I would recommend this camera if you are only going to use it in brightly lit locations and do not mind grainy pictures. If you want memorable good quality photographs, I would reccomend investing in a better camera.",5127
1,Excellent album,A great album. Nicely blended screaming with melodic singing (which is my personal favorite style). Killer guitar riffs. I'd like a little more lyrically but I guess thats just the emo in me coming out. I'm definitely looking into getting another one of their albums.,48727

1,Just a good ole game!!!!!,"The game is really fun the only reason i gave it a 4 and not a 5 is bc it gets a little repetitive. I was looking for a game that is cheap and a lot of fun and i got it. I really like all the things you can upgrade your weapons, plasmids and abilities. Its hacks are fun to do bc bc it reminds me of that old pipe game i used to play on the PC. If you looking for something to do while you wait for a game(batman) or whatever this is the one. Its cheap and a lot of fun. If you dont try it you will be sad.",19787
0,This movie really is Hell!,"What can one say about this particular zombie film? Terrible, terrible plotline, poor acting, unsympathetic characters, bad FX... at least it has a few zombies. Most of them look like regular people with jelly on their faces, though, and don't really inspire fear as much as giggles. Buy it if your a zombie movie fanatic, but don't expect 'Dawn of the Dead'. A further note- the 'featurette' on the making of the film, isn't even about this film, but another by the same director (who used different pen names for each of his films)!",49604
1,the book vs. the movie,"Hannibal the book is by far much better than the movie, as is usually the case. One thing I know for certain, without giving away the plot, is that I will never look at pigs the same way. Hannibal is truly clever and intelligent; and, though, his character makes him out to be cruel and inhumane, you almost admire him because he is above the rest. The ending made my stomach turn. Then, it surprised me. A great read... it goes quick once you're into it.",8593
0,Not patient-friendly enough...,"As a newly diagnosed patient with bipolar, I ordered this book hoping for some real life insight. This was definitely not the right book.There is an overload of scientific information in this book. I don't care which snyapse relates information to the hippocampus, etc. I just want to know how to fix and it!Not recommended, unless you want a sterile view on a most uncertain disease.",35953
1,A refreshing up to date music from the Queen of Soul,She's Back been gone to long for me but back with a vengence and rightly so. The Lady of soul was truly missed and now that she's back we can again swoon and croon with all the style and sass of the oldies we all love and remember. Good to have you back Aretha the Queen of the Garden of the Raining Roses.,12755
1,Brilliant but confusing,"Hands Down this is the best Poker book ever written.The major complaints about this book are how it's written, the authors are fairly poor writers, and even though the text is brilliant, its difficult to understand.If your looking to really improve your game and are willing to struggle reading and rereading a fairly dense and difficult book than this one is perfect for you. If you just want a fun read that will improve your play a little stay away from this bookFor fun easy reads there are many good books, my favorites and Phil Gordon's Little Blue and his Little Green books.",44722
0,Wasn't impressed,"Unfortunatly like so many, seen this was on Michael Jackson and jumped at having something else to watch on the great entertainer. Thankfully, I didn't pay much for it. Save your money, not a very good documentary at all or even interesting at all.",33754
0,Less than 30 minutes long; poor value,"While this DVD starts out well it is less than 30 minutes long and only touches on the most basic themes. There is very little detail or in-depth exploration of the causes of the war other than the obvious. The same segment repeats again and again on the DVD. I am not sure what the purpose of this DVD really is -- schoolroom use?Skip this one and buy the two ""classics"": the CBS ""The Complete Story of World War I"" narrated by Robert Ryan and the UK Channel 4 ""The First World War"" narrated by Jonathan Lewis.",46966
1,Fun and Touching,"This is definitely a women's book. It was fun and an easy read, yet also serious and thought provoking. It made me think about who I would include in a traveling funeral if I were to have one and where I would send them. It was honest about the grieving process and about how complex relationships can be. This book was recommended to me by a friend and I have shared this book with other women, and all have enjoyed it as well.",21199

1,How do you make God laugh? Make a plan.,"This movie is one of my favorites of all time. The characters, the wittiness, just everything clicked in this film. The story of 4 friends, who really aren't sure why they're friends, and the confusion they experience after college graduation, ""What now?"" kind of feeling. Throw in Grover's (Josh Hamilton) girlfriend (Olivia D'Abo) leaving for school in Prague, and a bartender who is working on his umpteenth degree, and you have a wonderful movie. The 'flashback scenes' really make the movie, and the ending is my favorite of any movie I've ever seen. I like movies that make me wonder what could've happened next!",34898
1,Most Used Kitchen Item,This is the best! I live alone and was constantly wasting food... Not anymore!! I love my new FoodSaver I use it at least once a day. It works better than I expected and is so versatile. I use it to reseal ANY bag I open. I have already saved more on food costs than I spent on the FoodSaver.,49674
0,Hack work from a mega seller.,"This is probably the worst book I've read since 'Atlas Shrugged'. I think he wrote it during commercials while watching TV. The writing in the first half was on par with most high school creative writing courses. The plot was very confusing and had a thrown together feel, like 'oh well, I'll clean that up in the next book.'The worst part is that he actually sounded like he liked the story and thought it was good.",23004
0,Cat Stop Just Stopped,"After only 4 weeks, this device just simply stopped working. I work away from home so I have no idea if it ever really kept my neighbor's cats away, but at least the light came on so I would think that it might have. I checked the battery and that was dry. I am just really disappointed in this unit. That is a lot of $$$ to just throw away.

1,gorgeous,This nursery collection is absolutely gorgeous. I can't say enough good things about the quality and design of the product to my friends and family. I wanted to write a quick note about some of the accessories because I read that people are having a tough time getting the accessories. I highly recommend going to a store if you can because I found everything I needed including the mobile (which I noticed is not available on-line yet). Just thought this might help those who are wanting items that are unavailable on-line.,30286

0,What a purported high IQ will not do for you:,"It you will not write you a good book on math. I was browsing through the store, and randomly opened to a page, where she says something about proving that imaginary numbers are a sham based on a proof by contradiction. She based her argument on the following statement: -1 times -1 = 1, so by contradiction, imaginary numbers do not exist.Ahem. If you're interested in this book, I assume you, like me, passed junior high algebra and could care less that (-1)(-1)=1, and care more that imaginary numbers are of the form ix, where i=sqrt(-1). How does her statement prove her argument? I don't know. Why'd she write this book? I don't know. Will you buy it? For the love of god, I hope not.",19880

1,Looking good...,"Back in 1992 Mission Studios came out with Jetfighter, a pretty good jetfighter simulation game with good graphics by 1992 standards. Then Mission Studios announced their to Jetfighter sequel, Jetfighter II. A few years later Jetfighter III came out. A year later the long awaited Jetfighter III Fullburn came out, an improved version of the Jetfighter III. Now Mission Studios is coming out with Jetfighter IV Fortress America. All reviews that I have read are positive. With 50,000 square miles of land to fly over, Great Flight models, and detail 4 times better than that of Jetfighter III Fullburn. The terrain graphics were made from real satellite images of the San Francisco area, and continue deep into Nevada. The flyable planes are the F/A-18 Superhornet, F-14 Tomcat, and the F-22 Raptor. The game is coming out in Late September. I can't wait to get my hands on this game!",29963
0,"Stay away, buyer beware","The main problem with this item and I guess any other item carrying the Optoma brand is....Optoma itself. Lack of before the sale support, lack of after the sale support; I should have stayed away when it took them a month to reply to a query I had before the purchase.TV has been nothing but trouble: It shuts off, refuses to turn on at times wthout the switch off/unplug from the wall/plug back/turn on dance, right now it has developed an uneven vertical line on the right side of the screen. Like all the other problems it has had I was hoping that it would go away but it has been a few days now and it is still there. Do yourself a favor and do a Google search for problems with Optoma TVs and you will get a sense of their support standards.Folks, spend your money buying a product from another company. In the long run you will get better value for your hard earned money.",19049

1,Perfect...,"""It is so rare these days to find a film with this kind of honesty and beauty and truthfulness...a film with a soul . Filled with raw emotions, incredible humor and fantastic film making, Zach Braff has made one of the most ""Real"" films I have ever seen.It is ultimately about what it feels like when a person can change your life forever, how someone else can come along when you least expect it and leave you unafraid of how strange and weird and confusing it is to just be alive. How powerful love can be. I applaud Zach Braff. This film has changed my life. With an amazingly impressive soundtrack I highly recommend this film to anyone.""",37268
1,Widows Peak,"Arrived quickly and package perfect. Love this movie! Great movie to watch on St. Patricks Day. With the sad passing of Natasha Richardson, this is one of her best. Quirky, fun, and the scenery is beautiful. Give it a try!",37909
1,Very Impressive Printer,"I always said my next printer was going to be an HP, and when I decided to upgrade I started to do some research, and the new Canon i-series printers sounded very impressive. So I decided to get the i-860 and am glad I did! I have had this printer for almost 2 months now and it still amazes me. Its most impressive feature is the quality of photos it produces. With Canon 4x6 glossy photo paper the quality of prints I am producing equal and even surpass 35 mm prints I have recently had developed. And I really like the individual ink tanks. Should prove to be alot less expensive when replacing unlike HP, Lexmark, Epson, and many other manufacturers. I have recommended this printer to a few others, and they are just as impressed as me. You wont go wrong with this printer...especially for the price!",20950
1,OUTSTANDING ROLE MODEL FOR TEENAGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"We presented ""A Hero's Love: The Daniel Unger Story"" to 150+ incarcerated teenage boys. They related immediately to Daniel and were inspired by the life he led. Daniel Unger is an outstanding role model because his high personal standards are not beyond the reach of most young people. There wasn't a dry eye in the house. I wholeheartedly recommend this documentary, especially to the Christian community of America, to prison outreaches, to youth, and to patriotic gatherings.",7243

1,Pure punk energy,"This is the Ramones at their prime. Raw and brutal. Heavy metal perfectly blended with bubble gum pop and good old fashioned rock'n'roll nostalgia. Here is perhaps the greatest punk band of all time at their prime. This after their first 3 or 4 albums before they'd gotten bored of these songs. If you get a chance to hear their later day live output, its too fast and sounds sloppy. Here they sound perfect. The best live album I've ever heard. Far surpassing Kick Out The Jams and that Cheap Trick live in Japan or whatever.",36931

0,Horrible!!!!!!!!!!,"Goodkind is a fraud!!!! I read the first book and hated the first three quarters, then the last quarter caught my interest. I then decided to buy the next book, and was thoroughly dissapointed. The main character Richard is a Jesus like character that can do no wrong. He is the god of every tribe he comes into contact with, he is the main focus of every prophesy ever written, he can do just about everything better than everyone else in the book. The dialogue is also very childish. I really would like the time I spent reading this garbage BACK!!!!!",7903

Can't walk a lot with it because the bottom layer is thin and solid, with no soft interior layers. When I run with the boots, my feet hurts, and make a lot of noise like beating the floor with a piece of rubber. I expected more than this with the price I paid. At least the size is fit for my feet, and the design for toes isn't bad, and the black color didn't fade away when washed----that's reason I'm giving 2 stars.",17205

I am a 32-year-old college graduate who thought the movie was quite good, and I'm not sure what all the bad buzz was about. True, Lance and Joey will probably never win Oscars, but that's true about the majority of actors. They certainly did as well as, if not beter than, most actors out there.Give me ""On the Line"" over ""Vanilla Sky"" (that's two hours or my life I'll never get back!) any day.I look forward to Lance's next movie -- and I'll admit it, I think he's hot!!",27151

1,Time Enough For Drums,"Time Enough for Drums is at times dry as the desert and at other times I couldn't put it down. Ann Rinaldi has an amazing ability to tie history together with things that are interesting to young readers. I was very interested by the relationship between Jemima Emerson, the main character, and the other characters in the book. In the beginning, Jem is a 15-year-old girl who runs off on her tutor, John Reid, making her parents worried and getting into trouble. Once the Revolutionary War begins and her brothers join the army, she realizes that she must grow up. When her mother falls ill, she takes over the housework and running her father's shop. She faces hardships and gets through with the help of John Reid. This book gives insights into what life could have been like before, during, and after the Revolutionary War.",42742
0,Dragged too long for me.,"Although I recognize the humor in this book, I was more amused by it than finding it ""laugh out loud"" funny. The misconception that ensues with the CIA is just not believable to me. And the coincidences that abound were just too convenient and obviously there to move the story forward. Try Matthew Thomas' ""Before and After"" for something along the same off the wall genre... Much better writing style and much more elaborate and intricate plot.",9076

When she was learning to fall asleep on her own I was able to see that she was ok without running into her room and waking her all the way up everytime she let out a cry. The monitor works all over my house includding the basement and even out in the yard. The only thing that I don't like is that it will let out a loud static sound from time to time. It is also pricey...but if you can swing it GO FOR IT!!",8750

What we are left with is Stipe and a piano. This is basically the REM we have heard now on the last 3 albums (Reveal had a few moments but not many).Has Michael Stipe gone solo and not told us? This album starts off pretty nicely with the first 3 songs. Then, your grandfather's REM kicks in with eight Up-ish lullabies. While Stipe's voice is still strong and beautiful after all these years, it simply can't carry 3 albums in a row like REM would like us to believe.

The premise is fine and I suppose it has some interesting philosophical ideas but it fails as a novel. The book is frustrating because it might have actually been a great one if it had been finished and rewritten. From what I can tell, the draft we have here is less than half the length of what the finished product might have been.If you want to read a confusing first draft that ends abruptly this is the book for you. If you want to see Kafka at his best check out some of his short stories.",27500
0,Protest against this,"Think about the name. ""Kindle"" means to start a fire; in the context of a device intended to replace conventional, printed books, it is ominous and even fascistic. The implication is that the device renders those heavy, space-consuming, paper books useless for any purpose other than burning. It is my sincere hope that this device will go the way of quadraphonic sound and the Betamax, remembered only as another quaint gizmo from the late 2000s.",45631

1,A wonderful Biochemistry Book,"This book, albeit a bit old, is an excellent book in learning Biochemistry. Our professor did mention some new tests and enzymes that Segel didn't mention in his book because of time, but reading Segel's book makes sense in topics that just stumped me.I felt that Segel's book provides a lot of examples, not just a formula, an example, and then the next topic. For example, during the acid base chemistry in the beginning, the book covers all realms of a topic, all possible scenarios of pKas and pKbs. He talks in-depth on Henderson-Hasselbalch and goes deep into buffer solutions, how to calculate change in pH and it's affect in different solutions.I was scared of biochem because everyone kept saying it was hard and tough to memorize a lot, but it really isn't that hard. Following this book and doing the problems out of it are a big advantage to any biochem class you plan on taking.",20799
1,Best clippers I've ever owned,I've owned several clipper sets that cost between 10 and 40 dollars. Compared to the Oster they were junk!I routinely use these clippers with a quintuple zero 00000 blade. The cut is very tight and quick to finish.,19965
0,Amelia Peabody - Mystery solver???,"This was my first and probably last Amelia Peabody mystery I shall read. Peabody is a nosy, verbose, upper class English Egyptologist famous for solving mysteries. I found the writing to be somewhat tedious and long winded. You'll have to suffer until page 125 for any sort of action to begin. I think only the true history lover can appreciate this novel, for most of the characters are either named after Egyptian gods or pharaohs. If this is the best novel Peters has to offer I dread to think of what her others may be like. This is a fairly quick read, really only a skim if there is absolutely nothing else at home on offer. I would reccomend other authors such as Christian Jacq, PC Doherty and Michael Asher who execute beautifully the wonders of Egypt.",11569
1,Blossoming Talent,"Sunflower games based in Germany is coming out with ""Anno 1503"" or ""1503 AD"" sometime in February. If there were no other such ""god games"" yet created, 1602 AD would have swept the US as it already did Europe. I think this game appeals to people with more mature tastes and an eye for illustrative richness. It's an easy game to learn and play with a decently addictive engine. ""1503 AD"" will have a completely different engine based on the now older ""1602 AD"" and will try to out do its original success.",46775
0,"A gay ""Birth of a Nation""","Impossible to watch. Incredibly hate-filled. The homophobia oozes off every frame. The heterosexual world, all bright and clean, spacious, daylit, bright colors. The gay world, all dark and sordid, cramped, dark colored. Gay people, a few campy queens, but mostly leering, threatening wackos.But the fascinating part is listening to the commentaries and watching the director and producer today DEFENDING their hatred. They actually tried to frame themselves as victims of their illiterate, anti-art protestors!Of course you have the right to any disgusting, dehumanizing opinion that you please, but applauding the murder of gay people, or even the monsters this movie refers to as gay, is hate speech.",31528

0,Condescending missionary writing,"I read this book, which was written in the first half of the 20th century, in an attempt to find out more about Appalachian history and society. It does contain overviews of topography and early settlement that are somewhat useful. But Campbell, although he clearly tries not to be condescending, doesn't succeed. He's a missionary, and his purpose is to bring ""modern civilization"" to an underprivileged region. In discussing how he wants to do this, he never really comes to grips with the unique cultural heritage of the people he's talking about and the ways in which modernization -- his version of which is a sort of clean-cut, upright, Protestant Capitalist dystopia -- would endanger that. I can't really see any reason why a modern scholar would want to read this book.",38729

0,Another perfunctory effort from Patricia Cornwell.,"This is the last Cornwell book that I will buy. Her last few Scarpetta novels have been heavy on the personal angst of her continuing characters, and VERY light on the mystery and suspense. If I want to read about lost loves, dysfunctional family relationships and May/December romances I will buy a Jackie Collins or Danielle Steele novel. Out of 315 pages, about 200 plus are devoted to Kay and all her troubled relationships, and less than 100 to the ""loup garou"". The ending is so predictable and perfunctory, I had to force myself to read the last 15 pages. For those of you who like to read suspense novels featuring a continuous character, I recommend John Sandford or Dennis Lehayne. They both are still putting the suspense aspect of their novels first, instead of dwelling on the histrionics of annoying characters, like Ms. Cornwell. I'm sorry Kay, but this is it for me.",36981
0,Awful book. But where did my first bad review go??,"Why did my bad review disappear? I'm not buying anything off Amazon again if they're censoring the reviews, that's what they're there for. This book is awful, just a bunch of half-true stories with predictable endings. It's pretty easy to think of hilarious dialogue when you have months to think about clever comebacks. I did laugh out loud at several parts of the book, but I rolled my eyes at the book's stupidity many many more times.",10974

Worse, I am presently searching for other brands because the lever to turn the filtered water off and on is stunningly awkward and hard to manage.

What were they thinking when they tested this model? Also, the green light/red light indicator for a saturated filter has never worked. C'mon, Brita. You can do better.

1,Always Entertaining,"I subscribe to more magazines than I care to admit and I hate to say that I hardly read any of them. This is the only magazine that I read on a regular basis because the content is always impressive. My husband also reads this magazine and asked me to renew it. The articles come with a fresh perspective and always focus on what is hot in Entertainment at the moment. Unlike People or other popular magazines, this magazine does not have Papparazzi photos and is very classy. It doesn't have trashy articles and that is what I like the most. I highly recommend. Amazon also has a great price on this. I just renewed my subscription through a different source and paid 4 times as much. I wish I checked Amazon first.",12852

Sniffy critics who like to look for ""fresh"" sounds will content themselves to look elsewhere. Yes, this does seem like a suitable followup to Empires.

1,Low budget with a high gloss finish,"Surprisingly good, is how I would describe this Nazi zombie film. It is impressive for several reasons.* Original screenplay.* Well done cinematography* Better than average acting* Decent musical scoreThis film is very memorable and fun to watch. The gore is not over the top. For a low budget work, it comes off as costing far more. The Nazi zombies have a measurable cruel streak. It makes them very interesting. The characters are not very likable, but this seems to have been done on purpose. The film builds slowly and it is a very long time before we see any zombies. They are introduced in a very creepy fashion, and the originality of the film takes off from this point. All in all, OUTPOST is a very good addition to the Nazi zombie genre.",41938
0,PURE GARBAGE,"Every bad white stereotype you can imagine is in this ""film"" it's funny how acceptable that is.

1,Amazing dvd,"This dvd is exactly what I was looking for in a ""learn to dance"" style dvd. Anasma seamlessly combines two very different styles of dancing in a way that is easy to understand and learn. Whether your style is more for bellydancing or hip hop, Anasma shows you how to approach the other one. Her methods are fluid, graceful, and beautiful and she explains how you can make yours the same. Just watching the demonstrations makes you feel like you can do whatever she can, but the intricacies of the choreography don't leave you bored too quickly. The drills are quick enough to do a few daily and the menu makes it easy to customize your learning process. The dvd is professional, simple, and well laid out. It takes a little imagination to adapt this style to club use or anything besides performance, but the effort is well worth it. I would love to see more videos from Anasma, and would have paid much more than I did for this item.",33078

So that they can grow up to be big and strong?Here's an idea - let the kids outside to play once in awhile - and get them a real Pet!

1,This is one CD I could listen to endlessly!,"It's really a great effort from this husband and wife duo. This music is truly heavenly, ethereal and ""not of this world"", and this is the type of music that I look for. It is very Enya-like in that the songs contain simple melodies, with the piano and strings used throughout the songs and beautiful background vocals. And the songs contain a very beautiful but complex chord structure -- also very Enya-like. Beautiful flute and acoustic guitar solos are included on many of the songs, which aren't on Enya songs; I have every one of her CDs, but this is the first 2002 CD I have. If you died and went to heaven this is the kind of music you'd hear! I highly recommend this CD to anyone, you won't be disappointed!",909

She writes what society has programed into her head, and yes her daughter had a hard time, it could just as well happened on booze.

0,Gap Who??????????,"I guess brother, Gap, to more famous Chuck Mangione, didn't get as much recognition as Chuck. None of his albums on CDNOW.COM have been reviewed. But I mean, none of his albums were that fantastic anyway. Check Out his 1979 A&M release, Dancin' Is MAkin' Love, its horrendous. I don't even think its jazz at all. Just some old jazz pianist trying to emulate some of the disco artists who were popluar at the time. But this is a rather good album. Not because of the appearence of pianist Gap Mangione, but because it is straight ahead. I like contemporary more, but when ever Gap tried to play contemporary, it didn't sound good! At least here, back to his roots, he can't go wrong? !",21876

For those of you who have heard ""Burning Down the House"" (which should be just about everyone except my dad), the rest of the songs are just as energetic. For a CD just about as good, I highly recommend ""Little Creatures.""To differentiate the truly great CDs, I have only given 15 CDs a 5-star rating. This is one of them.

Once upon a time, Norton was the epitome of well-designed, thoughtful, customer-centric software, but they've degenerated into outsourced hacks trading on a well-established name.

1,A True Sesame Street Fan,"I bought this book for my 16 month old son. He loves The Sesame Street Word book and thought this would be a good addition to his collection. He likes it okay, but still prefers the Word Book hands down. It starts with the alphabet devoting one to two pages per letter. Each page(s) has the letter and pictures of things starting with the letter. It also has the word naming the picture. I agree with other reviewers..some letters were not depicted very well compared to others. The second half covers numbers 1-20 then skip counts by tens numbers 20-100. All are done with pictures. If you had one book to buy I'd get The Sesame Street Word Book. However if you want to add to other educational books you have, this is a great purchase.",41183

This machine will suffice if you are only using low resolution DVD players because they are not nearly as sensitive as the newer upconverting machines that are being sold today. This machine will also overheat your discs and will likely do more harm to them than good. If you are a serious movie collector and like the beauty of Blue Ray and High Resolution TV Sets, do your self a favor.

A little of Charlie goes a long way and this was way more than I needed. On the other hand, Rose and Allie provided the most interesting subplot. And because of it I am very eager to read the next book in this normally excellent series.",41425
1,Waste no time! Buy now to avoid mediocrity!,"Sheer socks-knocking-off brilliance.

0,She tried...she really tried,"I really like the pictures in this book. I think they appeal to the modern tweens with their cool girl images and swanky colors. However, the story is very weak. Madonna takes a lesson (don't judge someone before you know them) and she tries to make a story out of it. I think it started well, but she tries to by funny and that doesn't work. She is no Lemony Snicket, my friends. Also...the fairy godmother thing? Come on...that was just...ridiculous. All in all, the story is just too cheesy for me. The last page could've been great! But it lost its magic with the line ""I didn't make this up."" Couldn't she have been a bit more mysterious than that? Good try Madonna...I'm still waiting for your acting career to get better too... :)",43842
0,Assmebled wrong and customer service was unhelpful,The wiper was assembled backward at the plant with the tabs that hold the wiper to the blade on teh wrong end of the blade assembly. Had to take the wiper apart and reverse it to get it to fit in the wiper housing on my Porsche Cayenne S.Once reassembled it works poorly as there is a good 3 inches of the wiper that do not make clear contact with the glass.I called customer service and they weren't helpful.My experience in this case was that Valeo couldn't assemble their own wiper properly and then when contacted didn't care that they blew it. Won't buy another Valeo product.,21575

1,This inexpensive preamp will add warmth gain and noise!,"I LOVE this preamp. I'm not crazy about the EQ or compression but I have a great EQ in my DAW and wonderful Compressor so that's not an issue for me. For vocals matched with my SM7b or SM57 this wonderful compressor adds such a warmth I feel as though I'm a late night DJ. It has such beautiful intimacy.I will say that you have to be very careful because the preamps are not noise free. They will add some hiss and I do not know if that is how they are, being tube, or if that is a defect. I need to call ART and find out. In spite of that I would not take this back. It's not noticeable when instruments or vocals are playing so can be edited out in the final mix. I edit out the silent parts anyway. It gives my recordings a warmth that feels like the 70's. If you love classic rock, that's a great thing.",2716

0,God Awful,"I found this series to be APPALLING. The first entire CD was interviews of Chritians who had raised strong willed children. It was a lot of hand-wringing.....""oh we've suffered,"" kind of stuff Christians seem to love.Most of the people interviewed spanked their children (sometimes up to 5 times per day or morefor being strong willed)......and the worst part was that this was ENCOURAGED. Other types of harsh corporal punishment were also condoned.I am a clinician. I also have a strong-willed child. I have read (or listened to audio) of dozens and dozens of parenting books. And I have to say that the advice given on this audio book goes against every bone in my body as well as most current parenting thought and knowledge.Thankfully, I follow other types of parenting advice and my daughter is thriving.DON'T BUY THIS TERRIBLE BOOK.",15890

The whole book is nothing but photos taken at UT football games, with virtually no text. There is no real information about UT's history, heritage, program, record, anything! The whole book is nothing but pictures, and mediocre pictures at that. There are boring pictures of fans, boring pictures of referees, boring pictures of people walking -- you get the idea. Even the cheerleader pictures are boring!! There is almost NO football in the whole book! I cannot imagine anyone, even a diehard UT fan like my friend, being entertained by this book for more than about 45 seconds.",4683
0,Disturbing,"I was happy to see a believer's testimony in print so I read the book as soon as it hit the shelves.I was disturb as I read ""brother Yun's"" account of how he commanded a man to become a Christian. It reminded me of the account of the conquistadors and the Aztecs. That account alone made me reconsider the testimony of Yun. At best Yun's testimony feels ego driven. It does not have the same language or feel as accounts from Corrie ten Boom, nor those in the Fox book of Martyrs, voice of the martyrs nor any or other believer's account of faith amidst persecution or difficult circumstances.Sharing the gospel is telling the good news of Christ not demanding or commanding anyone to believe or else. What was Yun's implied threat to the man? Perfect love cast out fear for fear has to do with punishment. Since when do we have the authority or right to command anyone to repent of their sins and become a Christian ?",10828

He can play the guitar like nobody's business, apparently he speaks French, and I think he knows karate too.

How can you not love songs like ""Reckoning Day"", ""Addicted to Chaos"", ""A Tout Le Monde"", ""Victory""...well, the whole thing, really! This album is nearly perfect. Just listen to that solo in ""Victory"". He must have broke the sound barrier when they recorded that! I got this album way back in '94, and it still hasn't left my player.

These boys felt it their responsibility to find out what happened to their father.On their journey to uncover the mystery they have many encounters with different people which causes some problems. In this book it shows the love of a family and how a family works together. It'ds hard to put this book down because you don't want to be left hanging.I would recommend this book to anyone who loves mysteries and suspense.

0,This book doesn't address cultural overlap.,"This book has several flaws. First, it perpetuates stereotypes about minority groups. Second, the authors seem to believe there is only one White culture. Third, the catch phrase ""culturally different"" is problematic. Different from what? White culture? There is no one White culture. Everything that White American culture is draws from other cultures; African, Asian and European. The premise of understanding cultural biases is good, however, the authors fail to present anything other than a superficial, stereotypical analysis of cultural biases in counseling.",13327

0,"The Absolute, No Questions Asked All Time Worst Movie Ever","I can't believe that this is the most popular movie of all time... The fact that this movie won eleven Oscars is the real American tragedy. ...This movie is right down there with The Matrix and Gone With The Wind. Leonardo di Caprio is the ""star"", Kate Winslet is the ""body"", and James Cameron is the ""mastermind"" behind this whole debacle. This is another example of cheap Hollywood commercialism. How many times are movies going to exploit great tragedies...? The only good part about this movie is that Leo dies. But even that's a jip because his death isn't nearly as painful as three and a half hours of this movie. If there's one movie that I'd destroy forever, this is it.",41302

0,"more like poster board, not photo paper","If you have ever gotten poster board for a school project, this is what you get in a small form. It's terrible. I suppose if you are using it for a school project then it would be great to print on, if you don't mind sacrificing the quality of whatever you are trying to print. I read a previous review stating that it drinks up ink and you can see that when your photo is printed. It left big ink spots on the photo that did not disappear when it dried. It's exactly as it would be if I put poster board in my printer, minus the slight shine. I take my own pictures of my son instead of taking him in and I am a huge scrapbooking fan, hence the reason I bought matte paper; it looks nicer behind a frame and doesn't get the same glare off of it and it looks a little more professional. I would rather drive to fred meyer than waste my ink on this. Spend the extra money and buy nicer paper.",25605
1,Emjoi AP99 Optima Epilator,I have been using epilators for many years and I find this product to be very easy to use and fast with the new double heads. The only thing that would be an improvement would be a travel bag instead of the nice box in comes in. I also prefer the epilators with a cord because that last one I had the battery didn't last very long. If you haven't tried a epilator in many years you need to try it again. They are not that painful as before. I received my product in a timely manor. I only wish Amazon would take paypal. KRK,6837

1,"Works great and is quiet, too","So far after a couple weeks of very occasional use, I like it better than our old DustBuster mainly because it's way more quiet. Almost pleasant, actually, compared to the ear-shattering whine of the old one, and the suction seems to be very good. I don't expect the non-replaceable battery to last any longer than it did on my last two DustBusters, but I'm not sure there's anything out there that is better. The pull-out nozzle seems slightly more convenient than one that separately attaches, but it's wider than the old one so it won't get into as tiny crevices. The method of hanging back up is slightly more intuitive than the old one which people not used to it had a hard time putting back. What's this with the gaudy colors, though?",40522
1,Sahara,"Sahara, with excellent acting by the entire cast, is a simplistic -- by today's standards of good against evil, but is raised by the quality of the acting and the profiles of the characters. J. Carrol Naish, a very good actor, unfortunately is typecast as the simplistic Italian soldier who is forced to go along with the ""evil"" Germans. Germans are portrayed in this film as uniformly bad, which was typical of wartime films.American ""GIs"" are also stereotypical. Bogart, as usual, gives a performance far above the level of the script. He makes the film worth seeing.",48506
1,I've yet to find the perfect clock radio; this comes close.,"We've had this unit for almost 2 years now. The brightness of the display is adjustable, and the dimmest setting is plenty dim enough, contrary to reviews that I've read here. The brightest setting gives the room about the same illumination as an Indiglo-style night light.The sound quality is quite good for a clock radio.Two problems:1) As has been mentioned before, there's no battery backup.2) I haven't seen this mentioned, and it's super-annoying... regardless of the volume setting or mode of the alarm, when you push the button that cancels the alarm, you're treated to a non-adjustable, full-volume BEEP. Want to wake up to a nice, soft alarm an hour before your wife needs to? Fine. Just don't try to turn it off, though, because doing so will wake the household with the alarm-cancel beep. Really, truly stupid.Other than that, it's a great alarm clock.",14141

Well, I've just gone back and read other reviews posted here. Yes, I have the 64 bit Vista OS, which this print server will not work with, a fact that was not disclosed in the product literature on the web sites. And no, my Brother C240 multi-function printer is not compatible - the literature says ""most"" printers are compatible. So, it is 'my bad' for not doing all the homework I should have done before buying it. However the fact that Linksys has no driver update for Vista is inexcusable. Needless to say, my next router will not be a Linksys product. I find it pretty disappointing that the seller or Amazon didn't note the Vista incompatibility, too.",48714

The sound is much better than the vintage-looking brands and it still doesn't take up too much space. Note - a prior reviewer said the volume knob doesn't work, but it does. To increase/decrease the volume you have to repeatedly turn the knob in the direction appropriate. This way it doesn't blast and you can make subtle adjustments in volume. My only criticisms are inadequate explanations of how it works (as the volume issue indicates) and difficulty seeing the details of the different functions with old eyesight like mine.",21054

Weird.She then fills ""space"" with endless random facts, some on memory, which after the 20th one you get the point that - Hey the main character just might remember something.I think she had a great storyline, but for whatever reason couldn't develop the characters sufficent to complete the chapters, so she through in alot of distracting information. By chapter 51, I gave up. Just too much excess information to wade through. I jumped to chapter 81 and polished off the book... Ending not bad, just a disappointing read.",1447

But in the Fall 1941 Jews have been treated as animals in 2 years already and at least in a year they lived in ghettos. Deportation - discussion with Germans? Absurd! No selection before departure and after arrival? No way. KZ prizoners look quite healthy and fed up. And where are all this people stuffed together in KZ camps?

0,Good movie hampered by limited DVD conversion,"I really liked the movie, even when it got too thin in the script department. The production was slick and maintained my interest during the whole movie. It is relatively short, and would be good at a party. Just don't expect the script quality of a Tim Burton's Batman movie.The downside is that the DVD conversion was not that good. For example, I noticed that the French version had better visual quality than the English version, like during the intro, when the title ""The Shadow"" appears. I think this DVD is a direct-from-VHS copy. Not the best of all methods!The features are quite limited. It is not even widescreen. No extra footage...Frankly, you are better of buying the VHS version of this movie.",11151
1,"Keep Up The Good Work, Ms Haines!","Once again, Carolyn Haines has delivered a thoroughly entertaining and intelligent mystery. The novel's main character, Sarah Booth Delaney, is a real steel magnolia. The author's take on ""Daddy's Girls"" and the Southern culture that she and her main characters are part of, makes these mystery novels richer in theme as well as content. If you haven't read the first installment of this series, be sure to check it out. I have read that the author has a three book contract with her publisher, but hope this will not deter her from continuing her Sarah Booth Delaney mystery series. The descriptions of the main character, Sarah Booth, and her day-to-day dealings with trying to keep her old family plantation, her Southern way of life, deal with her great granny's nanny's ghost, plus continue her PI work, are witty and enthralling. Please keep up the good work, Ms. Haines and take comfort in the fact that even a Yankee woman (with Southern roots) loves your mysteries.",27542

1,The First Cure Album?,"Minimalism at its best. Released in 1980, just after Three Imaginary Boys and Boys Don't Cry, one could argue that this is the first true Cure album. Its haunting melodies, eerie vocals and intense introspection were a sharp departure from the scattered and idiosyncratic punk/pop sound of the previous albums, and lay a firm foundation for the next two albums, Faith and Pornography.The only real single from the album is ""A Forest."" A terrific song, whose heart-beat bass line finale has become a tradition at every Cure concert. Also worth noting are ""Play for Today,"" and ""M""--bitter, resentful and dramatic, as well as ""In Your House,"" ""At Night"" and ""Seventeen Seconds""--sparse, simple, and beautiful, the lonely rhythms will swallow you whole.For new fans who liked Bloodflowers, this CD would be a great choice. As Robert defeatedly says in ""A Forest,"" you will want to listen to this album ""again and again and again and again....""",14963

0,"A review of the book, 'The Admiral', by Nigel Tranter","This is a fairly well written book. However it is not quite up to the high standards seen in The Robert Bruce trilogy. The story of how a relatively low-born sailor's son became so successful to be a friend of two scottish kings and their High Admiral is not very as convincingly related as Tranter's previous books. The perspective does not seem to be that of fifteenth century England. Also, there is no 'nautical' feeling to the story. Acustomed as I am to previous books such as 'the isleman, The Bruce Trilogy, Sword of State...etc, this has been a letdown",29844

Judging by the other reviews, I guess one either likes this book a lot, or not very much at all.These would be great characters if they had a chance to develop. Instead, they show up out of nowhere, even Holmes, and act out of motivations that are more redolent of pop psychology than anything else. Perhaps it is better as a screenplay than a book.The story has such a great historical and literary backdrop and I was very hopeful in the first few pages. However, it was a book I finished only out of grim determination than any deep interest in the plot or characters.",17257

Yeah, I thought so too, until I played the game and after making the smallest mistake during my run I had to sit through a really long load time, JUST TO DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN! The part I played before and after the loading was really cool and really fun, I just don't want to play a game where I watch the load screen more than I have a chance to enjoy my playing.

0,"unfortunately, this is the weakest of all his books","While I enjoyed the entire body of this author's work, this book is clearly the weakest of the lot. There are several character development problems in this novel. In particular, I suppose heterosexuals may be naive enough to believe an intelligent woman, involved in espionage, is so foolish as to try a seduction of another woman in the way Clancy writes Bea's ""pass"" at Candy. It is simply NOT believable. This character, Bea, is a very intelligent woman as Clancy writes her. If she is that smart and that closeted, she is NOT dumb enough to take such a high risk upon so little evidence the ""pass"" will succeed. Clancy is a good author but OUT OF HIS DEPTH when writing about lesbian characters. He should stick with straights and the military where he does well, or do his homework! This GLARINGLY flawed characterization RUINS a rather nice effort.",11445

The ease of use of this product was quite simply astounding. When you place a card in the reader, it will appear on your desktop (assuming you use a Mac) as any floppy disc or CD would. From there, you can copy the files to your hard drive by just dragging and dropping them into any folder on your computer. When you've done that, just drag the files from the card to the trash and empty it. Voila! You have just cleared the space off the card! It really is simplicity in motion.

It is a classic on the power of thought. So when I saw there was an, ""As a Woman Thinketh,"" I thought it would be interesting to see what it said. This book literally just takes ""As a Man Thinketh"" and replaces all the masculine gender references with feminine gender references.

1,Gliere at his finest...,"Rheinhold Gliere was not your typical late 19th early 20th century composer, he was a neo-romanticist, and he shows that perfectly in the Bronze Horseman Suite and the Horn Concerto. The Philharmonia Orchestra in this recording of a piece not found on many recordings, gives an exciting reading throughout. The brass section particularly sounds robust and to the front of the ensemble. Being a horn player, I can never turn down another recording of the Gliere Concerto, and this one definitely does not dissappoint. Richard Watkins is at his best here, Singing the beautiful phrases and using his technical mastery to astound and amaze. Many horn players shy from this piece for reasons of endurance, so hearing a recorded version is quite better than a live performance as far as fewer missed notes. If you do not own a recording of this concerto, buy this one, and then get the Hermann Baumann recording and compare two great artists!",19680

This was my mistake, as I was attracted by the latter. I originally thought that I could pick up some winning fundamentals of life/work planning.Worst of all, this book used the old-fashioned typewriter fonts, & was printed in a manuscript format, which further aggravated my reading process.Fortunately, my copy is a used one, which I have bought very cheaply from an online shop.On the whole, I have been very disappointed.",46869

To get the full effect you can go to Starfall.com and have your child watch this. If they like it then you will know that these videos are appropriate. If they lose interest, you'll know not to bother since it is the same kind of learning strategy except Starfall.com teaches the alphabet.",28967

After awhile, they start to pinch my ears and I notice it especially after I take them off. Overall, I'd say it's a good buy. They weren't expensive, so I wasn't expecting much.

The result, for me, at least, was that I despised everyone in the book and found them very unbelievable.There were many opportunities for Russell to develop her main character, yet she failed to do so, time and time again--I believe she doesn't know how.

I didn't do that the first time, I just watched the two featured movies and skipped the ""extras"". The trailers from other Doris Wishman movies were very good and I plan to buy some of them when they finally come out on DVD.

1,"Bob James does Rod Temperton just fine, thank you.","Bob ""Taxi"" James meets Rod ""Boogie Nights"" Temperton and the results are splendid, to say the least--generally, it's hard to find a bad Bob James album, anyway you cut it. This underrated album joins the then (1980-81) steamin' composer Temperton with mellow keyboard innovator for some pure music. Great background vocal work by the likes of Vandross, Austin, Val Simpson among many--I'm still trying to decipher their vocal impressionisms on the track ""Hypnotique"". The title track is not the ""Sign of the Times"" made by that Roger Nelson guy, but nevermind that. This is smooth jazz with a funky undertone (bass by Miller on some tracks?)",74
0,Hard to work,We just bought this scale today and we thought we would love it because of the memory for up to 10 people but this is the problem with it the scale we could get it to work following the instructions. We did not have any problem with the weight or the body fat we tried them on different surfaces and it was around the same every time (we just had our weight & body fat done at our gyms so it was preety much the same) but when we tried to get the memory mode to work it did not store anything and we tried for a long time. We are going to see if is a defect or try another brand (right now we plan on returning this one),7310
1,Past Recall of the Clan,"There seems to be a theme lately with my interests in books zooming towards the Cathars and the era of the Knights Templar. Nita has captured the essence of the Cathars mystique with her own time travels of switching from present to past portals of experiences. I am ordering her second book to see if she does indeed walk between the veils of the imaginaire and speak their truth for us all. One would question if there is a global awakening occurring with such fascination in the obscure heretical Gnostics called the Cathars. Why I am saying this is another author, Barbara Burritt wrote her own personal saga of past-life recall from this same chapter of mystical power and agonizing persecution. If interested in this theme read her book, Eclipse of Fate...my healing journey through past-life recall.May this awakening inspire others to spin their own webs from the mystic.",43116
1,True class,"I was a fan of Karl Denver's from the moment he hit the pop music scene in the early 60s. This compilation is a very fine selection of his work.

1,Great adventure story for young and old,James Willard Schultz can really spin a tale. His fluid writing style makes it easy for youngsters and oldsters to enjoy the life and times of the Northern Rockies when the buffalo still roamed in the mid to late 1800's. This is a story about two young boys who got stranded on a hunting expedition by an early winter storm. It is a tale of using skills they learned from their elders to survive attacks from enemies and animals and also the ferocious winter weather.,15764

0,Too technical,I have read several books by Brown and he seems to suffer from Tom Clancey's urge to describe in minute detail the entire operations of a submarine. Only Brown's forte is airplanes and in the course of his plot he wants you to know as much about the operations of an airplane as he does. This creates many pages which I just gloss over hoping that something else in the overall plot will surface which will hold my attention. I did not even finish this book.,24829

He seemed like a nice man, but when I couldn't pay the money back a week later he broke my knees, kidnapped my wife and sold my precious little kitty to the local Chinese place.

There are also activities for children and adults to make together: a place mat, table runner, window paintings, banner and diorama.The illustrations are bold and colorful and just the thing to draw children into the fun of learning.Armchair Interviews says: J is for Jesus: An Easter Alphabet and Activity Book is a perfect Easter gift for your special child.",15689

1,We can finally drink our water again!,"I absolutely love our dispenser. We live in an area that has heavily-chlorinated tap water and the smell alone was enough to keep us from drinking it. The Pur filter works wonders, leaving us with water that tastes amazing. I've quickly broken my habit of drinking far too much soda, choosing instead to drink 2 or 3Stainless Steel Water Bottle Canteen 40oz. - Single Pack - Stainless Finishfull of water per day.We have a family of 4, so the best method for us to keep the dispenser refilled is to fill your bottle from the tap, take it to the dispenser, pour it in and then fill your bottle from the dispenser. But even if we forget to do so, taking it over to the sink and filling it (it will fit easily into our sink, if set corner to corner) is not at all difficult.I've tried Brtita filters in the past, and liked them, but I much prefer the ""taste"" that the Pur filters give.",23840
0,disappointment,I did not like this movie because I felt it went way overboard on the cursing. Way way overboard past where it was funny. I guess I was expecting more from what I saw on the advertisements. The last fifteen to twenty minutes started to get better and I enjoyed the end of the movie. Would not recomend this to anyone. Almost total Disappointment.,2887
1,Absolutely Evil,"This movie has the feel of a kind of corporate hell. It's not just the demonic Chad and his high testosterone levels, mysogeny, and ""Dangerous Liaisons"" attitude toward amusement at the office. Howard, the ""almost"" good guy with the decency to feel guilty about his participation in Chad's scheme to break a co-worker's heart, is so pathetic in his own way that he too seems right at home in this version of hell. Visually, the office is dim, artificially lit, windowless, occasionally cave-like, contributing to the general sense of petty, officey evil.Without giving away the end, I can only say that I loved the movie for its seeming indifference, its refusal to sympathesize, and the slightly stunned, ""wow"" kind of feeling that it left me with. It's an exploration of human nature along the lines of De Sade, and leaves you wondering about the strong and weak, and the relative value of virtue in corporate America.",46502
0,Buy the individual stories instead. . . .,"I absolutely LOVE the Moles Sisters series. The stories are so igneous and sweet. We had three of the individual books before I purchased this compilation. I loved each one.Unfortunately I was very disappointed with this compilation.

This throws off the timing of the story & is visually less appealing as the pictures are crowded & much smaller.Yes - the stories are the same & are still charming. However, spend the extra money and purchase the books individually. You will get more joy out of the stories this way!",36854

1,All Her Hits,"For far too long Billie Davis has gone unrecognized for the talent that she was.The Decca Years were the beginning and the end of what might have been a much more illustrious career. Halted by a scandalous limo accident with Jet Harris (a married man) and a series of unbelievable bad luck, her musical efforts were never to return to the limelight. Included here are her only UK top ten hit, ""Tell Him"" (1963) and only other two charting hits ""He's The One"" (1963) and her 1968 return to Decca ""I want You To Be My Baby"".This is a must for all sixties British music history buffs.

However the only place i could find E-commerce discussed was in the title of the book.SKIP THIS BOOK!!!",5529
1,Kindle evaluation,"Overall it is a very good product. Content offering is adequate with the assumption that more is forth coming. The only issue I take with the advertising is that the battery life is no where near what the advertisements say. Leave the Kindle on with wireless off and the battery is DEAD in 24-30 hours. With wireless on, cut that in half. Overall I would certainly buy it again but take the advertised battery life with a large grain of salt. cjhash",15194

0,Unacceptable,"At today's level of technology, I thought some simple electronics like this from Philips should simply work without a glitch and provide beautiful sounds at this price. To my utmost frustration, it was rejected from a 2004 Lexus LS430, a 2003 Cadillac Escalade, a 2004 Infinit G35, and a sony portable audio system at home. (I've definitely inserted it the correct way. And the auto reverse feature tried it a couple times too in each car.) The only cassett player it stayed in is in a 1990 Dodge Caravan. Due to the poor stereo system, I was not able to evaluate the sound quality. I may have gotten a bad unit. But for something this simple, every unit should have worked. This is just unacceptable.",14026

Except maybe it was little bit heavy.I strongly recommend you to this player.Overall it also looks really cool with the blue light.This is a really good product and strongly recommended.",25957
1,Quality old-school hardcore.,"This is what I like to listen to when I feel like listening to something different. It's a shame where hardcore has gone. This album blows the nuts off of the likes of Diecast, Nothingface, Hatebreed, etc. I haven't gotten around to hearing more Rollins Band. I had heard that Henry was a comedian. He seems like a guy that would be perfect for that. My only major complaint about this is the sound quality. In places, the guitar is very hard to hear. Just listen to ""Lonely"", ""Wreck-age"", or ""Next Time"" while in a hard emotional time (i.e. getting dumped, losing a job) and you'll see why this album is a classic.",30712

1,The best musical of all time.,"This is definately my favorite of all the musical and dance movies ever. Grease can be summed up into one word: Awesome. The music is electric, fast paced, and exciting. The plot is funny and charming. The cinamatography and the nostalgia factor is also good. The movie is hands down perfect. Danny and Sandy are icons in the movie world. They are the ultimate teen couple. The film is definately one of the greatest films of the nineteen seventies. This is the kind of movie you can watch over and over again. See it at least once.",28164

Frankly, it's all seems like some sort of attack on law schools rather than a book to help students. Despite an occasional tidbit of advice (which, as I said before, isn't really anything original), you would do better purchasing the other books which are more to the point by cutting out all the useless information this author presents.",21209

It might just be that my ears have gotten use to the amp and Im going deaf lololol. But It still was a great buy. I lowered the amp cause i have gotten 2 tickets and a warning from the police lololol. So there is your proof on my expense "" IT DUMPS"".

I'll admit, if you are like me, and have never read a ""vampire-type"" romance, this may catch you by surprise. ...Give it a chapter and you'll be completely delighted. The story line is solid, the characters believable and I can't wait to see what happens in subsequent books!Well done!",44655

It wouldn't power on at all no matter what we did (fresh batteries, etc.) I took it to a camera repair shop and they said that it would cost more to fix it (if they could even do that) than to buy a new one. I see by the reviews of others that it is a common problem. I was planning on getting another, but was sort of leary about it. Now I will DEFINATELY NOT be buying another like this!",9972

0,I HATED this book!,This is truly the worst novel ever written in V.C. Andrews' name. What kind of a protagonist is Hannah supposed to be? The whole time she is complaining and whining. So what - you're mom didn't breastfeed you? What sixteen year old acts like that?I am shocked how V.C. Andrews' name is getting more and more abused. It slowly started with the Landrys. The Logans were okay in some parts. I'd rather not talk about the miniseries and the Hudsons - but THIS is a joke! Don't even waste a second of your precious time reading it!,41329

1,Perfect for all of your water needs,"Summer, that's what we named our Solar Shower, was an amazing addition to our camping family. We use it for almost all of our water needs while camping. The mirror isn't very good quality, but personally, I prefer not to use a mirror while in the great outdoors anyway. One word of caution, the hose is openned and closed by pushing/pulling on the shower head so if you have slick hands, it can be a bit tricky. Even hung in the shade, the water eventually warmed.",34523
1,Outstanding,"I've read all of Welsh's books and they certainly can go off on some bizarre tangents, but Glue is tour de force. Its a simple story, forcefully told.The Scots dialect may be difficult to understand for non-Scots, but put in the effort as you will be well rewarded.Everything about this book is superbly written: From the descriptions of the seventies tenements, to the football violence, to the ageing process. What differs from most of Welsh's other books is that although there is his customary despair and nightmarish scenarios, there is a heavy dose of comedy and the dialogue is absolutely incredible.The book's main conclusion is redemption and is ultimately uplifting.Quite simply the most aggressive, funny, outlandish and uplifting book I've read in many a year.Good work, chap.",36015

1,Great Game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"Star Wars Battlefront II is way better then Battlefront 1. The gameplay is the biggest hit. The shooting isn't as good as Halos shooting, but the shooting is still awesome. In addition, you can zoom in with all guns now making the game much easier. The jedi modes are also fun. If you get boared of keep getting points to unlock jedis, then just go to Mos Eisly Assualt. That levels awesome. The graphics are good but the character models are bad looking. The sound is incredible. The sound of blasters, lightsabers, voiceacting, and music help bring the Star Wars feel to life. However I hate the annoying commander who keeps saying, ""We've captured a command post."" That guy is so annoying. The game is long and the menus are good as well. All in all, Battlefront II is a great game. Buy it!!",15401
1,Too Many Cameo's,"I really enjoyed this CD and Jason Jay E's production, but the only problem I have with this CD is that it has too many cameo's. It reminds me of the Birdman album. There's only one solo song on the album. Thats it. That just shows how much faith Nelly has in Murphy Lee. But Murphy Lee can spit. He's a good rapper, but he needs to display that more. More solo tracks would have been nice. If you're a St. Lunatic fan, you will like this CD. I highly recommend it.",16105

My wife, who has a pathological aversion to all things science fiction and fantasy, actually liked both the series and the movie. I think the thing that really sets both appart is character development. A lot of material in this genre is focused on the fictitional ""universe"" created and character development is secondary (or tertiary or nonexistant). The characters in Serenity and Firefly are the primary focus and they are real, interesting, and funny. Highly recommended.",37260

Hardy must be rotating robustly in his grave.Look, we love period pieces, and have watched just about every one available on DVD or VHS. But sometimes, if they're badly done, they're just a waste of time. This movies ranks right up there with the most recent version of Mansfield Park as an adaptation crime.

0,Leaking Cap - Simple Correction,"The cap leaks due to ""Flashing"" from moulding was never removed to allow the ""Oring"" a smooth area to seal against. Correct the problem with an ""emery board"" from your finger nail care equipment,add a cup of water to jug then smooth the two ""Flash"" areas till a finger nail will not catch when drawn across the areas. Then screw on cap so the ""Oring"" is seated, turn the jug so the water covers the outlet,check for leak then if still leaking turn cap 1/4 turn tighter or looser to see if leak stops. If not go back and do some more smoothing till there is no leaking. Then add more water and swish it around to get the filings out of the jug. A final checkout can be made by having enough water in the jug to cover the cap area, screw the vent plug tight,then squeese the jugs sides to raise the pressure on the water so it will be closer to what a gallon of liquid wil exert when the jug is full.",10283
1,One of the best Nintendo games of all time.,"I found this game at a garage sale for a nickel. I bought it for my brother, mostly; but I have to tell you it is one of the best games I've ever played. The soundtrack reminds me so much of Contra, all though it was made by Jaleco and Contra was made by Konami. The graphics are great. The game is totally challenging, especially the final level where you take on all the bosses you've faced in the previous levels. Of course you take them on individually, but they are still challenging and you don't get any helth ups. You get power ups and such, but all-in-all it is a challenging game. I would highly recommend it to someone who is a fan of Contra or fast-paced games.",23889

1,HOLES,"Louis Sachar, the great author of Holes, was probably so into this book while he was writting it. He had to have been thinking about something or someone when he was writing it and I would like to ask him if it is true. the whole book in a brief message would be, Stanley Yelnatz got in trouble, went to camp, and good things happened after that. It was really inspirational and thats why I gave it a 4. I would have gaven it a five if he added a little more excitement. I think a person who would enjoy a nice non fiction book would read it and they wouldn't be able to stop after 10 pages because you get really into it. In my opinion if you read this book once you will read it again.",47774

I really felt close to Lennon and it made me realize that this guy is a lot more human than I ever thought. Rosen really takes you deep into the life of a genius who really was like you and me.

This latest entry into the series is the first one I felt was just not very good. I understand that Malkavians are all mad but this book is enough to drive you over the edge. The story line was not advanced in this piece except to kill off a few more characters. Perhaps I'm missing something but you could of told this story in two pages, the rest of the book was just a wordy jumble of confused prose written in the first person then switching over to dialog between an ego and his ulterego. I know this is fantasy but give me a break, this series has been so good what has happened? I hope the last four novels in the series are as good as the previous eight, I guess thirteen great novels was just too much to ask.",45549

That may be a safer legal bet, since cases aren't always straightforward. The NOLO book, however, offered a very common method to evaluate the case value. While the insurance companies are not allowed to absolutely use that formula, it is a very good starting point.This book is too generalized to help the way the NOLO book does.",9765

This time, it is not the populace, but the government which tries to keep its citizens blind, but the government itself is blind.The first half of this novel is grueling, nerve-wracking as it focuses on machiavellian politics, the second half more personal and fluid as we follow one police superintendent who encounters some characters who should be quite familiar to those who have read Blindness, which I would suggest doing before reading this book.Discomforting, maddening, and tragic, this book may ramble at times, but it begins to become strangely coherent and thoughtful in its latter half.",13180

Demy has all the dialogue sung to the pounding emotional score of Michel Legrand. Catherine Deneuve is etherial in one of her first leading roles and the role which really brought her to international attention.As a different twist on the French New Wave movement, Umbrellas will tear your heart out as any man or woman who has known the bitter twists of unhappy love can attest.The restoration of the film ranks up their with the work done to restore Vertigo or Lawrence of Arabia.

One may imagine my disappointment when I discovered Prayer was missing from the book! And ""Madame Guillotine"" is practically the equivalent to Jekyll and Hyde's thunderous ""Facade"" and should have definitely been included. Even the relatively short reprises of ""When I Look at You"" and ""Where's the Girl?"" would have been awesome additions!

We all have a desire for quick and easy answers and I find those to be more often shallow and distracting than actually helpful in addressing fundamental issues. So I was very reluctant to read this the first time it was suggested to me more than 20 years ago, but I did because I trusted the man who gave it to me, and I was desperately in need of hope...It's an easy read, but very hard to forget. It's still with me two-and-a-half decades later, and so is my family which was very much at risk during my 'hell' that led me to a place of listening. No short answers here, but easy to grasp concepts that can change lives in the contexts of deep pain and our relationship to a God that never stops loving us.",7645

The emotional ups and downs between the humans and dogs are the best I've read and help put this book in my top 10.I also loved Pam Houston's chapter in Dog is my Co-Pilot.But the first chapter is tough (power through everyone it is worth it!) and the human characters are not real, they seem ""Hollywood"" (ie created for a television movie and manipulated).",17207
1,Plunge into the enchanting world of Harry Potter!,"This is by far the most outstanding novel I have ever read. Why, you may ask, has this Harry Potter tale (along with the others) become such a huge success? First of all, the characters are skillfully crafted. The struggles and triumphs of Harry, Hermione, Ron, etc. are easily related to the struggles and triumphs of today's generation. Then, there's the exciting plot. Let's face it: most, if not all of us, hate boring books with pedestrian plots. This novel grabs the reader's curiosity, due to the thrilling events in the story. Next, there is the despicable villian (essential in every good book!), Lord Voldemort. Finally, there is a suspenseful ending and an important lesson to be learned (of course, I will not disclose either one)! As you can easily see, these factors all contribute to the success of these stories. These days, I see many people devouring all three of the current Harry Potter tales, and I don't blame them!",23595

This book has some basic overviews of what search engines desire but doesn't reference any websites that have been successful following this advice. Each topic receives a cursory overview with marginal examples. This book is a simple overview with no in depth information.For example, maybe 50% of websites out there are developed using MS FrontPage and not one word in this book describes how to use this development environment to promote FrontPage created websites.

Since I am in sales, (and only have one assistant who doesn't need much managing) it wasn't much of a help. The personality test wasn't even helpful. The book recommends that you use it to ""hone your strengths"" and then it doesn't tell you how to go about doing that. If I were managing 20 or so employees and had to make a lot of hiring decisions it might have been helpful- it did discuss how to match people with different talents to appropriate jobs.

I don't know what happened after that, because I walked out.I never got past the trailer with this turkey, as the incredibly fake scene of pyrotechnics going off between decidely post WWII reserve frigates put me off before I ever got near the theatre. Did they run out of special effects budget? Gag me.Nobody bothers to get naval stuff right it seems. What, you thought the German navy had destoyers with multiple twin gun turrets (U-571)? That WWII U.S. carriers had angled flight decks (Midway)? I guess my favorite of all time is the U.S. gun cruiser Salem standing in for the Graf Spee, hee hee (Battle of River Platte).

If it hadn't broken the two times bought a different one of these headsets, I would have been happy with it. In short, buyer beware.",11618

It didn't work, and it just made the movie seem even more stupid.I would MAYBE have found it entertaining in Jr. High, but not high school or even college, unless I was inebriated somehow.

I also like the fact that the swing and music last so long. I took him out of the swing one night and forgot to turn it off, and it was still going the next morning.

But I love this CD, every song on it, and have been listening to it over and over in my car. Her voice is unique, a combination of Shirley Temple, Melanie and Patti Smith. I loved it right away, and combined with her sharp, poetic lyrics and spare, non-traditional instruments (mostly harp, played like an acoustical guitar), it becomes something new to my ears but very familiar to the pleasure centers in my brain.

Barrett does seem know her stuff quite well and that is reflected in her meticulous writing. The story is harmless enough (even though her style does grate on the nerves at times).If you are anything like me, though, and enjoy reading stories that have more depth to it than ""Perfect Woman meets Two Hunks.

Very soft, and the sweetest voice. The pony asks for a kiss, asks to have her hair combed, and says other things too. This pony has definetly won my daughter's heart!!",34864

1,Finally saw it...and loved it.,"For years I had seen this movie on department store shelves and toyed with the idea of buying it, mostly for the array of actresses in it I recognized. For one reason or another, though, I never actually saw this movie until it was on TV a few days ago. And did it ever impress me. The characters are so real, the beauty so intensely beautiful, and the tragedy so unbearably sad as to instantly make it one of my favorite movies of all time.",22490
0,"Boring, pedantic a waste of money","I seldom buy hardcovers but I was waiting for this book so... I sprung for it and promptly regretted my decision. The book is overly concerned with minute details. D. Weber has a great story telling style but I cannot believe he had anything to do with what went on in this book. It was just a big setup for the next book with plodding asides, usless digressions, forgettable characters, this book has it all.The editing in the first 50 or 60 pages left a lot to be desired. All in all a tiresome read and certainly one that will color my interests in upcoming Weber books.",28
1,You'll love it or hate it - I love it,"If a fan of the original series, you'll either really, really love this or really, really hate it. For me, I love it - actually, I enjoy it more than the original; same off colour humour, same great characters, but a much wider parameter for the humour to draw from due to multiple sets/situations/environs. My POV is that the original series became rather limited & singular due having to stay within the confines of the store. Mrs. Slocumbe and Mr. Humphries steal this series with some real sidesplitting one liners/situations... but didn't they always?",15682

Aim high and you're ""pretentious"". By their lights, no one should ever think, no one should ever question, no one should ever experiment. We should all conform to the lowest common denominator. Well SOME of us are bored by your 3-chord blunderbusses like Third Eye Blind and your self-absorbed posers like Kid Rock.

Even if we lose all the original Beach Boys, the music will definitely live on for many generations to come. I urge everyone to purchase this phenomenal DVD for their collection.",30869
0,It's good to be a widow,"I started this book hoping for a little depth, some insight into a young widow coping with the untimely death of her husband. Sure some humor and hope are a good thing, but this is so trite and unrealisistic I wouldn't have finished it if not for it being a book group selection. Sophie Stanton tells us she's grieving her husband (and we must believe her-I mean she goes to work in her bathrobe!). However, she seems fairly happy and things seem pretty good for her. She moves to a new town, discovers a previously unknown talent with which she starts her own very successful business, rehabilitates a troubled teen, and has an incredibly good looking and kind man fall in love with her. And all within a year of her husband dying. Gosh, it's good to be a widow!",36011

1,It won me over very quickly...,"I am a big fan of the Timothy Dalton BBC version of Jane Eyre because it is so faithful to the book. The Masterpiece Theatre version won me over on the first viewing. While it is not as faithful to the book as the BBC 1982 version, it is still beautifully done. Toby Stephens did a magnificent job as Rochester, despite the fact that he is really a handsome red-headed man. Ruth Wilson embodied Jane Eyre very well. The performances made up for the liberties taken with the story. A very well done updated version to this classic timeless novel.",31891

1,"Solid book, 'tho a bit disappointing","I've read all the Tempe Brennan books and enjoyed each one. Sometimes, I find Tempe a hard character to like: she's written as being a know-all who finds all the clues the police miss. But the mysteries are solid and the forensic techniques brilliantly described so that the reader doesn't fall asleep from information overload. I do get a little distracted by all of Reich's road names and directions. I found the ending disappointing. Why does the protangonist have to behave in an utterly stupid way in order to get into trouble? There are better plot devices that would enable the same result without turning the character into an idiot.",43420

A multi-tiered, unique sonic treat.",49202

It is a collection of chapters where the modern 'gurus' of the gifted movement answer the same questions - define 'gifted' and cocnceptions of giftedness.

It was a surprise to find that this new edition left the ""Introduction"" out of it. Would that be because in it the author criticizes the divisions among Christians and the false doctrines that were brought in by men?

What Deutsche Grammophon should have done is to take CD 2 (all stereo) and the 2 stereo tracks off CDs 1 and 3 and combined them with other artists and made a 3 CD Richard Strauss Panorama series set.Just about everything on Bohm's 3 CD set has been recorded in great sounding stereo by Herbert Von Karajan.

1,Excellent Use of Gaelic Sources,"The author uses a wider variety of sources than other books about the Druids that I have seen. There are no surviving Druid religious texts. I would tend to suspect that they all burned when the Romans invaded Mona, the island that was the center of Druidism. So Ross utilizes secular ancient Gaelic texts which she can read because she is a Gaelic speaker and a scholar of ancient Gaelic. She also read all the standard Roman texts and gives them more cognizance than many modern scholars do. She made the interesting choice of interviewing contemporary Gaelic speakers about folk material and found some ancient survivals.Ross has a provocative theory about Saint Columba having been trained as a Druid before he became a Christian. Since the historicity of Saint Columba's exploits has not been demonstrated, it remains nothing more than a highly entertaining conjecture.",11157

Unfortuantly the only actual person that has a large part in this book is Custer. In my opinion this book doesn't let you choose sides. Just as you might start feeling sorry, or rooting for one of the sides, Turtledove starts telling the story from the other sides point of view. This book shows how horrible war really is.",11468

Each section starts out with questions that focus your thinking towards the theme of the passage. Then, the full text is given with extensive end notes. More questions follow that test your understanding of what you just read. The author then sends you to related passages in the Bible for further study. Typically, one of those passages is reproduced in the study guide. Discussion questions are included at the end of each section. My only complaint is that the end notes are often on a different page than the full text. Flipping back and forth is annoying. Footnotes would have been a better choice.",294

0,AN INSULT TO SCOTTISH PEOPLE,"This is the worst Laurel and Hardy film, for one it isnt funny, and two the supporting cast's ability to play Scottish people was awful, more than half the people in the cast have American accents. I have an example, the leading actress has the strongest American accent of them and she says: ""I don't want to leave Scotland, I have lived here my whole life"". Give me a break.",25401
1,"Quality tool, you can get professional results with this tool.","I purchased this smaller electric hammer to use for light masonry operations. I found it works best for precision detailing such as removing individual tiles and bricks with mortar. Best, is that it is not as destructive as a larger electric hammer, but more like using a hammer and chisel for fine chisel work. The tool makes you capable of achieving clean, non destructive openings or removals on you masonry work. This Bosch electric hammer provides everything you will require for light work with the quality you expect from a Bosch tool. This one meets all of my exceptions and I am sure yours too.",14287

0,Poor Quality,We got this tape player as one of my 3 year old's birthday gifts. To begin with the sound quality was quite poor. Secondly the microphone had a relativly small button that had to be held down to make the microphone work...which was dificult for our 3 year old. I've heard great reviews about the fisher price tuff stuff tape player from other moms...I believe we will try to exchange this item.,2866
0,Don't even consider buying this book...,I have read Claudia Dain's book before and they were okay in quality. This book hits a new low...was there a plot?

I've read a couple of critics compare this album to Alanis' Jagged Little Pill and I do agree. This album is defiantly more edgy than her squeaky clean albums. I wish she would stick to the more rock than pop side. I think it suits her voice so much better. I recommended this album to all the fans that followed her career and those that liked Jagged Little Pill. I was kind of surprise that this album did not take off like it should have. I'm not Sleeping, I will not breakdown, Piss U off, Silence, All the Talking, Good enough for me, and Butterfly hare my favorites on this album.",34178

If I adjust the chain too tight it binds, too loose it fall off. There doesn't seem to be a correct adjustment (believe me, after putting the chain back on a few dozen times I have tried everything). I truly hate this product and feel sorry for anyone who buys one. Do yourself a favor - spend 300 bucks (or lots more, of course) and get a good saw. I can't really afford it right now, but I can't really afford not to, either. Time is money and this horrible instrument of mental torture will cost you lots of time.",35595

I think he'll like this more when he's older (when he's taller so it doesn't crowd him in his high chair. What I do like is that it catches liquids like water and pureed food well since it's not a flimsy cloth bib. It's also easy to put on, although my little one does sometimes like to chew on the bib right beneath his mouth.Pros: catches food well including liquids because it's not flimsy and it's easy to cleanCons: it's hard silicone so it doesn't fit well on a high chair if your baby isn't tall enough to clear the tray.If you're looking for other feeding items I recommend, visit my website, AllMomsArePerfect.

The only bad track is the last one Implements of Destruction because its too long and its an instrumental and i hate instrumentals. I can see these guys being the future kings of metal. Also check out Otep, Amon Amarth, Nile, Morbid Angel and Norma Jean. Chimaira rule!",11440
1,A Great Book,Quicksilver Moon is a fascinating window into the minds and world of some contemporary witches faced with a deadly enemy. When a Vampire comes to circle it becomes clear we have no ordinary novel here. There is wonderful depth and insight within the various characters as each one shown in first person perspective. The pagans of this book are portrayed as accurately in belief and practice as one could ever hope for.This book is fun! It never gets pretentious and always keeps me wondering what is hiding behind the next page.,47112

0,WHY GLORIFY DRUNKEN THUGS,"As a former USMC Recon leader, I was told about this book several years ago and just read it. I understand that it is not a recruiters guide to joining the legion but how can anyone take this organization seriously? The Marines and SEALS used unpleasant discipline as needed but we did not experience any deserters that I recall. If this behavior and treatment are accurate, they must have the lowest readiness, training, and morale percentages of any third world thug squad. I was disappointed with the book and its depiction of the legion. I expected to leave with a more positive perception of them. At least with the amount of drukenness, lack of deployability, and horrible small unit leadership; the legion cannot be taken even remotely seriously as a military force. This fortunately leaves the business of warfare and the gravity of its outcome to capable professional such as the American servicemen.",13275
1,Stanley's Finest,"I purchased this bottle as a Christmas gift for my dad. He often spends a lot of time going to and from work and I thought he could use a nice thermos for coffee; on-the-road coffee tends to get expensive from most chain joints.As a test to see how long this thing would keep a beverage hot, I decided to pour in hot top water without warming the bottle first. (Cold Bottle<>Hot Water). To my amazement, the hot water stayed hot for a full 24 hours. The water was still hot to the touch and remained warm even for another 12 hours until I dumped it out. It could have lasted longer than that I assume, but there isn't any real need for 48hr coffee.Great product, although it has some leakage at the seal, but nothing to get in a fit over, that is unless you store your thermos upside down perhaps.",23238

1,Good For Beginner to Intermediate Level,"This video is a solid workout for beginner to intermediate level exercisers. If you are advanced, it will be a good choice for light days. No equipment required except for a pair of handweights, which are optional. The workout alternates moderate cardio segments (i.e. kickboxing, aerobic dance, etc.) and toning segmeents (i.e. various combinations of lunges/squats coupled with a bicep curl/lateral raise, etc.). You can make the toning segments more intense by using heavier weights. The workout ends with some ab work and about 16 or so straight-legged push-ups (sorry, I don't remember exactly how many, but I could do them all military style, so that tells me it could NOT have been more than 24 since that is my limit!).Overall, a solid and fun workout - 4 stars. I will probably purchase the FIRM Bootcamp Maximum Calorie Burn DVD next.",45508
1,still good despite casting of Bella is disappointing,"I have read the books, watched the movie and read the book again. Some things were changed I wished they hadn'tbut overall I guess given the budget and all that it was still pretty good. I think the characters were well cast except something about Kristen playing Bella is just off, not right. Bella is suppose to be a klutz, but very smart, and I think she comes off more as mentally slow rather than uncoordinated. She may have chemistry with Edward (Rob) but I think her acting skills are below the standard of the other actors and that drags the movie down. I love Alice and Jasper, all the Vampires were cast perfectly..so what happened to Bella.???",1577

1,"Good story, unsatisfactory pacing.","This book started out enjoyable and its' characters were likable, but the story lost its attraction in the last few chapters.Barebones plot:Hero and heroine meet under awkward circumstances and the heroine gives conceals her true identity. But they obviously like each other. Late, they meet again in Town, and the heroine is too scared to reveal her true self.I wish the denouement had occurred 2 or 3 chapters earlier, so that we'd be spared repeated example of Lady Jane hiding herself from Wintringham. The ruse went on for far too long. And then, in the end, the Earl got over the deception so easily that it made me want to throw my kindle against a wall. (I didn't).Clearly, the hero's understanding of the heroine was completely false I wish the author had devoted at least two of the misspent chapters on re-establishing a new relationship for them.Otherwise, the book was rather well-written.",49194

0,A bit of a wade....,"Like many others i am sure, the reason for reading this was the Hours - i haven't seen the movie, don't plan to, but at the time i wanted to know what the fuss was about. And the fuss is about a arather boring stream of consiciousness style ramble about a pretenious, boring upper-class woman living in London and a (mentally) battle scarred man also living in London, with brief crossings of their tangents here and there. There are a few sentences of particularly lyrical writing, but the main impression is ""And the point is?"" The narrative is practically non-existent (not always a hindrance, but it is in this book). The characters are boring, except for the wife of Septimus, the man mentioned above - she is not given the room she is due. If this is classic Woolf, i will have to avoid her work in future - Orlando was bearable, but i could not see the point of this.Stick to The Hours - it is a much better book!",39422

1,Superbly Detailed and Fascinating,"This volume, one of many in Norman Friedman's naval design histories, is amazingly thorough in its coverage of U.S. aircraft carrier design from the 1930s-era Saratoga and Lexington through the nuclear-powered Nimitz-class, as well as the offshoot amphibious assault carriers.The book is filled with design schematics, ships' specifications and more esoteric naval information than you could possibly absorb in a lifetime. The rich wealth of information is the consistent strength of this series that makes it a bit overwhelming for the casual reader looking for a narrative history of U.S. carrier.The emphaisis here is on ship design, its impact on operations and little else. If there is any shortcoming to be found within the book, it is that it is rather old, having been last updated in 1983, when the Nimitz class was just hitting its stride and long before the design innovations fueled by the Navy's growth in the waning years of the Cold War.",13515
1,TDK LightScribe Media,"I've been using LightScribe discs for a few years now and have found them all to be about the same. TDK has been producing media for a long time (tape and discs) and I find their products are usually very reliable.Typically, I use Verbatim discs because I can find them locally and don't have to wait for online shipping when I need them. But these TDK's work just as well and the low price (plus free shipping option) makes these discs an exceptional buy.It should be noted that not all LightScribe discs work the same in all recorders, and it's best to experiment to find the brand that works best for your recorder. I find my LG recorder does a better job with Verbatim discs, while my LiteOn drives handles most discs about the same.I've used a few hundred of these TDK LightScribe discs and have never produced a coaster. They seem to be very reliable discs.",2795
1,Strong performance - strong movie,"This movie didn't need big action scenes, headbreaking stunts or a supernatural plot to be good. One should call a motion picture only movie when you are really moved by it. And this one surely is a big movie. Not the classical-tear-jerking-coming-of-age-stuff we're used to.The strength of it comes from the actresses and actors in it. I was astonished to see how good both Friel and Wiliams were able to play the same characters in different stages of their lives. I especially enjoyed Michelle Wiliams performance (I admit, I already liked her a lot before I saw this movie), I never imagined she could be that good and convincing (and with a quiet Brit-accent in her voice).Unfortunately this movie isn't out on sale in Europe yet (...hopefully yet).Cheers,FB.",18706

Well, I think it's a small miracle to make a watchable film with no money, no known stars, and an empty old grocery store. Any young filmmaker should watch this as a lesson in writing a simple script that keeps you involved and makes good use of limited scenery...very limited scenery.

Ergonomic design comes in handy. The unit fits securely on the palm of your hand, and works well if you only have one hand to spare. it's light enough to wear on a belt clip. Perfect use for outdoor hiking, MTB, or walking through the urban jungle (don't suggest using it as an automotive nav system; it's like your 90 year old grandma driving and reading street signs with her only good eye).I like the flexibility of the microsd card.

1,An Enjoyable Presentation of a Difficult Topic,"I am a psychologist who has studied the management of difficult behavior in children. This DVD is paced very well, being neither too difficult nor too easy for the average person. The topic could be painful and distressing, and any parent looking for this kind of help is most likely to be in some distress. Yet the program maintains a light hearted and humorous tone in order to make such a topic tolerable. Frankly, the program is entertaining! The program is presented very clearly and should help parents to engage their children successfully. If parents would take the time to engage their children in the ways described by this program, I believe there would be far, far less need for them to turn to drugs to control the behavior of their children! I hope that parents will first try the techniques described in this program.",47754

I used it with an auxillary channel in my sound system and the quality was superb. Then, all of a sudden, my Ipod stopped working after undocking from this device.

0,Carter says...,"In an article from Rolling Stone magazine, Carter Beauford said this about Everyday:""My creativity, my expertise, as well as that of the other guys in the band, was smothered. The record didn't need us.""I couldn't agree more. This album lacks the jam sessions and creative stick/sax/violin work that the band is known for. It's basically just an overpowering Dave Matthews on electric guitar. Over the last couple of years I have desperately tried to like this album, but to no avail. There are, however, a couple of exceptions. ""When the World Ends"" is a real cool song, and if it hadn't been for 9/11 would have been a big radio hit. The title track ""Everyday"" is a knock-off of #36, otherwise known as ""Honey, Honey"" (or for the diehard fan, the song was originally ""Hani, Hani""). But the rest of the album is nothing more than dirty pop and thrives on the term ""sell-out"".",15732

1,4.5 not 5 but i round up,"great cd. track one sounds like at the drive in, which shows the connection volta has with atdi and is a bridge from atdi to the mars volta. In fact this album is sort of a bridge. These three songs are a sample of what volta was is and will be, and is a whole lot of fun to listen to... anyways track two is standard volta rock, and track 3 is weird volta rock. IMO 3>2>1, although its hard to say one track is the best because they differ in style. Ive heard their other two cds -- they both have a lot more material than this one, but hey, all great things must have a begginning. and this is it!",6479

The sound effects sound like the ""tooth fairy"" is congested. I just kept wishing someone would offer her cough medicine so she would shut-up and kill the rest of the cast. Don't go see this.

The book did not take place 100 years ago and the scenes in the orphanage did not take place 100 years ago. Besides that, your review was good but I just wanted to clear that up. By the way I thought this book was very good. If you have read the book and not yet seen it I suggest seeing it, but it isn't nearly as good as the book. I saw the movie before I read the book and it is one of my favorite movies. I read the book, and thought it was so good that I read it again, and again. John Irving is a terrific writer and I suggest reading his others novels. Specifically, I suggest A Prayer for Owen Meany and The World According to Garp. Those are my favorites. Thank-you",15663
0,Junk,I knew we were purchasing an inexpensive dehydrator. For the price I was hoping it would last at least a year or so. Then we could make a bigger investment into a more expensive model if it was something we decided we really wanted to do regularly. This model worked great for about two months then it started shutting off after about an hour of running. We would turn the switch off and let it cool down. Then after an hour of cool down we were able to turn it back on. Then an hour later it would shut off again. Needless to say that produces a very poor quality of dried vegetables and I wouldn't even dare try using it for meat at this point. Save your money and put whatever you were going to spend on this toward a better model. This one is junk. I will not be buying any other Nesco products.,13798

1,Found: a message; wanted: an editor,"All those who have complained about the book's length are right: it's at least twice as long as it needs to be. But its message is crucial -- just how crucial can be seen in the fascistic ""quit-whining-and-go-to-church"" low-star reviews below. These horrifying social visions -- essentialist, mindless, cruel -- masquerading as plain-spoken common sense are all too typical of the ""real"" world we needlessly bully our sons into believing is ""the way things have to be,"" not a singularly rigid, emotionally cold (but far from inevitable) version of ""the way things are"" right now. People like Pollack are potentially forces for a much-needed revolution in this country's popular understanding of the connections between biology, gender, and behavior.

0,For Christians Only,I am a Muslim from Somalia and so I wanted to see what Christians say about our Holy Book.

But it is a quite delightful fictional tale that I found to be a very pleasant and quite interesting read. It is the story of an impoverished girl who is sent to be a lowly maid in the Vermeer household in the mid 1600s. Her interaction with the master, whilst quite innocent, is a catalyst for suspicion and jealousy amongst other members of the household, both above and below stairs. Much of her time is spent treading carefully as rumours of her relationship with Vermeer spread throughout the house and the entire town.

Like this novel, that movie provided a fresh new look at a familiar hero. That movie developed the character of Bruce Wayne/Batman through dark cinematic images and flashbacks in the same way that Allende develops Diego de la Vega/Zorro through her beautiful prose. It is no wonder that the creator of Batman was influenced by Johnston McCulley's Zorro. My one disappointment was that this book had to end. This sorrow not only came from the fascinating and imaginative tale ending, but also from the lack of true Zorro adventures (as the legendary hero fighting injustice in old California). I had hoped to read more swashbuckling once Allende established Diego as Zorro. Perhaps Allende will save these tales for further novels. One can only hope.",46912

The most remarkable tracks are Energy 52's ""Cafe Del Mar"", Paul van Dyk's ""Words"" (one of my all time favourite songs), and Agnelli + Nelson's ""El Nino.""Overall, I think this album will appeal anyone who truly loves electronic music. If you are a BT, Sasha, or John Digweed fan (like me), this album is for you. The tracks on this album are candy to one's ear. For myself, a trance lover, this album is one of my all time favourites.

After viewing shows and movies with the In-law tv, I made my purchase.I am happy with my purchase and would recommend this TV. The only concern that I have noticed is the stand can make your TV lean in various ways. My In-Laws TV leans back slightly, mine leaned to the left when I first got it. All I did to fix my problem is un screwed all the screws on the stand and rearrange the stand and put the screws back in. I haven't had any problems since. It is just a minor fix, just make sure you put the TV down on something soft because you have to have it lay on it's screen to get access to the screws.",39291

Its sad to see a good band go bad, now you might be thinking why didn't i just rate this 1 star? well because the 1st single ""somewhere i belong"" has meaning isn't stale and shows potential for this and same with breaking the habit but other then this the album sounds like they failed at making hybrid theory pt. 2",22499

They offered that I can return the item but who wants to go through that effort if they can just get a good answer to their questions. I also questioned the age of the inventory as the color of the moisturizer in the tube was different that the tube I had just finished (purchased from a local store.) I was always given the option to return the item and I chose not to because of the effort required on the purchaser's part, but I suspect that the answers I was given may not have been entirely true.",7194

0,Didn't like it!,"Let me preface by saying that I really like Levar Burton. His work on Star Trek and Reading Rainbow is great. I love to watch him act.BUT! Levar should spend some more time practicing before he publishes any more books.Levar has an *excellent* idea with this book. He is a very creative individual, but his writing is too choppy and plain. I was unable to relate to the characters, and topics were introduced to quickly.If this book had been several hundred pages longer, I would have been able to read the whole thing, as it would have necessitated more descriptive language and more attention to detail.Burton should not give up hope. His ideas are fascinating, just presented without enough detail and character development.I will buy one of Burton's books in a few years, because I believe that writing experience will improve his style. Possibly you will see a rave review from me for a future Levar Burton novel.",43432

Her cd is something that people who love Eden's Crush and O-Town would love with a passion. I threw away this album because it was so horrid and that is pretty bad because I love music with a passion it is the air I breath, without music I would not exist so me actually throwing a CD out means it is pretty horrible.

Back then I KNOW I wasn't the only child afraid to go to sleep after watching this film. It can really get into your head.It's really a fantastic film, too.

This book was published in 2003 but it must have been a 20 year project because nearly all of the photos are seriously old. As in, when I was a child old! The quality of the photography in many of them are no better than snapshots from the 1980's, they're amateur and poorly focused. Also, while it makes sense that the research may be of only a few centers I didn't feel that it represented a varied approach to play space design.I expected a resource that would help me plan my homeschool environment. I can see where this book would be very helpful for daycare or preschool facilities, but not for the home user.

0,When a cute toy becomes a pain in the neck. This really was too good to be true.,"What a great concept- multitasking while doing housework. I can do other jobs while my Roomba Discovery gets a jump on the vacuuming. Unfortunately, only five months into this, I am paying to ship the unit back for replacement. (Most companies I've dealt with under warranty arrange prepaid shipping for you when it's their problem) However, speaking to the customer service rep left me feeling that Roomba's are great and there is clearly something wrong with me! Note that this was my third call in- second to a human. The first human neglected to tell me not to operate the unit without the small plastic bearing cap that was to be replaced, causing further damage, now at my expense. Anyway, buyer beware- this unit is not as robust as one would like. I hope the army is getting a better deal from this company than the general public.",47676
1,"So far, so good (but LOUD!)","The peach frozen yogurt recipe is delicious! I freeze what we don't eat that night, and if I'm feeling like yogurt for dessert, I just put the container in the fridge 2-3 hours before you dessert time, and it softens up just enough to be perfect.Ice cream turns out pretty good so far. The Premium Vanilla recipe they give isn't quite as sweet or smooth as store-bought(maybe future attempts will make it better). I followed the suggestions that I read here about thoroughly freezing the bowl, and cooling the mixture first. You do need to re-freeze the mixture for at least an hour (2 is better) to get the right consistancy.My only complaint so far is that it is LOUD!! It seems like such a simple motor, I don't know why it would need to make such a racket. I think other people have mentioned this, so I'll assume that it is not a problem with my re-conditioned model.Overall, though, I would definitely recommend this machine, especially for the price.",446
1,"Powerful voice, distinctive personality, and powerhouse rock","This collection, spanning the entire(?) career of Ronald Padavona (Ronnie James Dio) showcases the powerful vocals (first present in ELF, who I got to see in 1975, when they first toured with Deep Purple, and stopped in St. Louis, MO; through the days with Rainbow, and Black Sabbath, as well as his master solo career, from the molten metal classic Holy Diver, to Strange Highways, this unique rock personality showcases some powerhouse songs, such as The Last In Line, We Rock, Carolina County Ball (not metal, but pretty damn good rock), and many others. Can't wait until volume 2 is compiled. [I own all of the individual solo work, as it's well worth it for the material not included on this collection.] Congratulations to Rhino, for finally giving this underrated singer his due.

1,Entertaining and Serious,"Some people may call this book an ""easy read"" and it is easy to read, but that ignores the very serious underlying theme: rape. Gwen Fagan, the heroine, is admirable in her professional success but she becomes inspirational in her ultimate battle with the after-effects of her brutal rape. I suspect that Gwen's story will ring true with many women who have suffered the same awful violence and I hope that Gwen's response will inspire those other victims to follow suit. Congratulations on a great first novel, Mrs. Perkins. I am looking forward to your next book.",14635

But honestly, on that footage, the most shocking is not the gunshot to his head, but the reaction of the police who stood at a safe 150 feet away with guns ready and watched the guy get out of the car with his shotgun, open the trunk, load the shotgun and then shoot himself...Also the comments on each videos are not good quality: ""let's watch this part again"" Sometimes, they start a pursuit and then jump straight to the end when the car is already on the roof.And where is that tank they show in the preview?",19288

1,"Still great, Still HARDCORE!","What more can you say about this band. Darkest Hour's lastest release is what puts the hard in HARDCORE. This band successfully takes the things that make metal so great and combine them with their hardcore take on it. They stand above most of the other metal bands as orignal in their own way. From the beginning song A Cold kiss to the almost 9 minute metal orgasm of The Last Dance Massacre, this band amazes me with their hard rock guitar and their chilling and deep vocalists screams. The only way this album flaws is in it's repetativeness. The bands last album is very much like this one, so to the untrained ear this is a copy, but being a HUGE fan, I love it all. If you like death metal or hardcore, definetley check this band. Personal Favorite tracks: Another Reason and So Sedated, So Secure",3178

1,A must read for every hores/pony rider,"This book is chock full of very usable/hands-on advice/information on horse and pony training. Even though I have had my horse at several riding clinics, nobody ever pointed out that my horse was overbitted. By just following the advice on bitting, my horse is now much more responsive and has not balked even once when out trail riding. I have also learned to hold the reins with a much gentler hand. All in all, I feel I have not only helped myself, but I have also helped my horse as well. As another reviewer mentioned, I think every horse should come equipped with this book. Instead of teaching you to train your horse, this book teaches you to understand your horse so that the training becomes a learning/understanding process for both you and your horse.",22958

0,Glitchy and gets boring,I think this game gets boring after a while and all the people you face break all the restrictions. I fought P. seto and he used ragieki 2 or even 3 times!!!

1,"Not THE best cup of coffee I've ever had, but...","I got one of these for Christmas and I must say I like it a lot, but it isn't the *best* cup of coffee I've ever had as it is advertised. It is fast though. And convenient. And there's no mess. And it's very cool, and did I mention FAST? I timed mine at 90 seconds from off to ready and then like 38 seconds for a cup of coffee which is faster than I could boil water on my stove. I didn't think it was noisy and it's acutally quieter than my old Krups. I would say overall I'm pretty satisfied and I like being able to choose my coffee by the cup. Oh, using bottle water easily improves the taste of your cup and (I hope) will give me longer times between descaling. I'll be buying a box of Coffee People k-cups next month to try them out. BTW, Sam's Club has 80-pack boxes of k-cups for about $33 each if you're looking to save a bit per cup. Now all I need is a machine that I can put vodka and gin in that makes me any martini I want.",17358
1,STELLAR REGIONS: worthwhile,"Stellar Regions is a very cool collection of studio outtakes from the later years of Coltrane's life. the playing is great and it's wonderful to hear his exploration of so many new ideas. it's a marvel to think of how further developed these songs might have become if Coltrane had lived longer. i'm glad that this was released to the public because it stands as a fascinating audio document to one of the greatest musical minds the world has ever known. i'd recommend this to experienced fans of John Coltrane, not to those who are just beginning their search through his vast back catalogue.",42087
0,Darling Lili,"I was very unhappy with this item. Apparently the manufacturer took some short cuts and perhaps, liberties. Several scenes had been cut from the film and tacked on at the end as ""extra scenes"". I considered the product mutilated. I didn't review it right away because I didn't feel it was Amazon's error. However, I realize now, I should have warned others about it. Ended up taping it from TCM. Could have used that money on other items I'd like to own.",33407

0,Does not stay hot,"Had I known how long it takes this fryer to get the oil hot, I would never have bought it. I use this to deep-fry chicken wings. My wings are supposed to cook 12-14 minutes at 375 degrees. This fryer takes about 30 minutes to get the oil to 375 degrees. Once I put the wings in, the temp drops to about 270 and will not come back up. No, the chicken is not frozen or even cold. It just takes forEVER for this fryer to get the oil hot. I have resorted to cooking the wings for 10 minutes, removing them while the oil heats back up to 375 (about 15 minutes) then putting the wings back in for another 3-4 minutes. I'm only doing that until I can find a replacement fryer. I see this is now ""unavailable"" - now I know why.",7407
0,Don't waste your money!! Piece of cr*&.,"This alarm clock is the cheapest, most poorly made item I've seen in a long time. It arrived in a damaged box with the front tree (scratching post for the buck) broken. I bought this as a Christmas gift for my son, so I was going to try to make it work, so I quickly super-glued the tree back in place. I inserted two new batteries and after multiple attempts (following the directions precisely) at setting the alarm and time, I never got it to work. I was sadly disappointed as this seemed like a cute clock, with the talking feature and all, but it turned out to be the biggest piece of junk! I am bad about saving boxes and receipts, so I just tossed this thing in the garbage can and I'm out the $30.",38505
0,13 Months Then DEAD,"If you plan to use the drive as a backup, DON'T. It has been running fine for about a year now and then all of a sudden it started having problems... When turned on it would show up (USB) for an instant then go away and would repeat this for possibly 5 minutes. Eventually it would calm down and either be available or not until I power cycled it and the whole thing would start over again. The point of this is at under a hundred bucks you get what you pay for. It was a good backup until about a week ago. If you plan on using the drive as a ""working"" drive and you don't mind a failure (e.g. you've got everything on it backed-up) then caveat emptor!",31816

0,Shows an odd attitude toward her subject.,"What if a male journalist were to write a 600-page book that focused on interviewing Leona Helmsley, Lorraine Bobbitt and others like them, then concluded that their complaints were the chief issues that most women face?

1,Perception shifted,"I made a point of reading this just one or two pages at a time, every day or other day, to really digest what I read and not rush through it. That was probably a good thing since it can be a little repetitive, so trying to soak it all up in one sitting could have felt monotonous. But when I reached the end and I closed my copy, I thought ""everyone ought to read this, and I wish I could 'explain' it or share with others the feeling that it left in me, but.. well.. it would be like 'pointing at the moon.'"" I'm sure I'm still a poor student, but I did feel a change through reading it-- a sense of real potential for some peace and clarity and flexibility-- and now I'm trying to dwell on that and cultivate it.I highly recommend this if you're searching for an inroad to a deep spirituality unburdened by religious dogmas.",10304

She plays with the camera some, the telescope less, and the other two pieces not at all, and unless you get it just right, it's difficult to get them all in there (especially the camera - the opening isn't very big).

0,Badly written and full of misinformation.,"This is a terribly bad book. It is full of factually incorrect assertions woven together into a distorted picture of the most influential and complex theater worker of the twentieth century. There is a total absence of critical perception or analysis, and for someone who claims to have been working so long in the field, Fuegi betrays a remarkable lack of insight into the dynamics of theater production. He pays lip-service to what he seems to believe are feminist principles, but underneath them, he shows great disregard for the opinions and achievements of the remarkable women who worked with Brecht throughout his life. Fuegi seems to have learned nothing from Brecht;his writing is plodding and turgid - all the more so in the context of Brecht's own sharpness and economy of language. Any other book on Brecht would provide a better introduction; I have only given it one star because I can't figure out how to give it less",32930

Perhaps the title should have read ""Tips on Maximizing Your Appearance from a Mildly Successful Model from the 80s"".

I have previewed it once, now again and then will write out my affirmations. He has a website that has worksheets to print and use. One of my main concerns is wording my affirmations in the correct way so that they are effective. He goes into detail on this! It's definitely worth the money and time and it's an easy read.

But I wasn't looking for James's biography so much as for an account of his ideas. (That's why I bought a book called ""The MIND of Bill James""!) But it was all pretty thin. The appendix, which contains brief presentations of several of James's more influential ideas, was the most promising part of the book, but it was far too rushed.

1,Shania Up in Chicago DVD,A must buy for any fan. I was at this concert in Chicago's Grant Park and the DVD captures the energy of her live show. Shania is the best singer/songwriter around today and this DVD is a 2+ hour live show of 22 hit songs (many of which were deleted when this concert aired on TV). She is also backed by one of the best supporting bands in music. Buy it! You won't be disappointed.,364

1,the fundamental chages become obvious,"By series 5, Red Dwarf has begun to deviate from its roots, which is actually obvious before this. By series 4, it is much more based on visual and physical comedy than before (though they never forget to leave room for the hysterical lines) But series 5 is fundamentally different somehow, to me, it begins to get a little more sober (slightly) and thoughtful. It begins to deviate somewhat from th basic premise the show was founded on) But despite any chages, it follows still in the grand tradition of Red Dwarf, delivering dense, side-splitting humor, right until the last moment.",7347
1,AWESOME CD!!! WORTH THE WAIT!,Kelly fans couldnt be happier!! This cd is Awesome! Well worth the wait from the expected first release date of November.I think my favorite song is Beautiful Disaster.

1,Watch Those VCRs at Low-Budget Motels!,"This was a great movie. At first I thought that it might be kind of stupid or geared towards kids, but it held my interest the entire time. Of course, it has a supernatural bent, which stretches the imagination a bit, but for that genre, it was very well done.The basic plot is that several teenagers watch a strange videotape and within one week, they are all dead. A reporter finds out about this because her babysitter is one of the teenagers who died. She and her estranged husband investigate the suspicious deaths.The story moves quickly, the acting is good, and I imagine that watching it at night with the lights out would be creepy. Lots of fun and I liked it.",26655

Sure enough, the spring sensor was stuck. In an attempt to free it up, I broke off the rather fragile, brass micro-switch post. Now, the washer motor won't shut off. This would be ok except that the pressure builds to such an extent that the sprayer valve won't open, leaving the unit totally useless.",15761
0,Has no substance.,"Reading this book it is clear the author is originally and more naturally a poet. His lyrical style did not translate well to prose and as a result this book is boring and slow.

The characters are all paper cutouts and the storyline drags very badly. I kept checking the page number and thinking, ""Is it possible I've read this many pages and still feel like the interesting part hasn't started yet?"" Worst of all, the ""hard sci fi"" consists of a Jovian gas-based society (which has been done much better by other authors) and nanotech machines, the Wheelers, which they simply *skip* actually describing in detail in the book!

Right away, it's guaranteed that the book is going to be terrible, even just for the reason that the narrator is a guy who's only interest in life seems to be getting another can of beer...

0,Disappointed.,"The setting for this book sounded really promising, America in the 1930's, a circus touring the country, an elephant. In addition by the time I got around to reading it the book had become very popular (which I felt indicated it must be a good read). Overall I have to say the book was a letdown. I still feel the idea behind the story and its setting have the potential to make a great book but ultimately Ms. Gruen does not deliver on that potential. I was especially disappointed by the way the Kinko/Walter character changes his attitude towards Jacob seemingly overnight, the way it is written Walter's behaviour just doesn't ring true. The ""love affair"" between Marlena and Jacob is also disappointing, there are several scenes where a good writer would really be able to make you feel the internal conflicts the two characters obviously must be experiencing given their situation but again Ms. Gruen's prose just left me feeling flat.",14605

Talk about spoiling a great thing. Siren 2 is supposed to be on the horizon, and hopefully the game's makers will come to their senses and include the Japanese audio track for all releases. It could have been right up there with Silent Hill, but instead the realism, and thus the intensity and scary factor, is lessened because of the lack of a Japanese audio track, which could have been easily included since this game was released in Japan with such an audio track.

Well I followed the directions and set it up properly but the seal on it is terrible. I had it leak on my countertops I had to shove towels under it before it could leak all over the place.

1,Great Symphonic Black Metal,"I bought this album when it first came out and still listen to it. The first time I heard them I was on their web site and got a sample of Genuine Pulse. It impressed me enough to buy the CD. The best way I can describe it is symphonic black metal. Somewhere someone may have broken it down to something a little different, but that is MY description.The music is heavy on keyboards with strong guitar background. The lyrics seem mystical, dark, and beautiful. I guess they are lyric poetry set to very heavy music. I don't really know the deep meanings of any of the songs but I like them all. The album rocks right through to the last cut, which is kind of mellow.These guys may be black metal but they go beyond that. They're a great introduction to black metal without all the pseudo ""Satanic"" overtones. Highly recommended.",7566

Also, on the one end that goes against the wall, the brass coating is pocketed and missing - just like on the first set.These products must be rejects from Hoppe's otherwise excellent suppliers.",19583

Bought before going on vacation, & called the store upon my return to complain. They said, ""That is just Sony's way of making you buy a separate charger.""

1,Plain language a welcome when discussing poverty and welfare,"Finally, a book that discusses the subject of poverty, welfare dependency and our economic system by using the plain, spoken English language. Gone are the doctorial essays on social stratification, mind-numbing research statistics, and twenty letter words. This book provides a superb overview of the subject without it being too elementary. She uses renown experts on the subject, and than paraphrases/summarizes their conclusions in easy to understand language. As a teacher of poverty at a community college, it was a welcome relief to assign readings from this book because the students were able to grasp the subject so much better than with textbooks written for people already having a good foundation in economics, sociology and scientific inquiry.

1,"Lovely models, shame about the diagrams.","Don't get me wrong, these are 5 star designs. The horse especially is a masterpiece, created from a single uncut triangle it has perfect proportions and looks virtually alive. Brill's unusual style involves creating very solid, 3D models and tricky modular geometric shapes.However, these are very ambitious models, and the generally poor quality of the diagramming means they are very difficult to fold, even for a fairly experienced folder. The book would have benifited greatly from either photos or clear and well explained diagrams, as found in the 30+ year old ""Best of origami"".Oh, and one more thing. It's mearly a biproduct of the complexity of the models, but most of them are impossible to fold from normal sized origami paper. I have found that a roll of parcel wrapping paper is ideal for these projects.",17575
1,Good Reference Book,"We've used this book mostly for identification of fish that we didn't recognize at the pet store. The pictures are fantastic and it covers a broad scope of information on setting up the tank, reefs, fish and invertebrates. It gives information on what they eat, who they get along with, and what conditions they prefer. In some cases, however, the directions for caring for a certain type of fish were not as detailed as we would have liked. If you want a general saltwater reference book, this is a great investment. If you're looking for specific, detailed instructions on how to care for different things in your tank, another book might be a good supplement to this one.",13824

I don't think they had been exposed to the mob mentality yet. They wondered why anyone would slash, bash and trash another persons things (not a great value to impart). At least Mr. Clack and the others were sorry in the end for what they had done.I had not previewed this book before I shared it with my children - I would not have read the book to them.

1,Does what it promises,"I've been disappointed more than once by software that promises to make life easy in some way or another. I've bought software that promised to help me write a business plan, one application that was supposed to help me design a house, and one package that would teach me Italian. In each case those applications did about of what they promised. Dramatic, though, delivers. For me, coming up with a story idea is easy. I can write dialogue without breaking a sweat. My weakness is getting bored with all the details required to construct a long-form story. Dramatica makes it fun. It doesn't make it easy. It might even make the process of story development a little harder, but if you use it, you'll have a better-developed story with deeper more interesting characters.",7189

I am a fan of the original Styx lineup (in other words, it ain't Styx to me without Dennis DeYoung). That's right, folks, Dennis DeYoung is out of Styx and a new fellow by the name of Larry Gowan has taken his place (with not-so-great results, but hey, Tommy and JY seem to think Gowan's pretty cool). He lacks Dennis' vocal range. His song ""A Criminal Mind"" reminds me too much of Timothy McVeigh to be enjoyable. Tommy Shaw and James Young did a pretty decent job but Dennis was the founder, guys!

1,Power-Metal and Elegy meets good old 80s Ard Rock,"As for The Unknown, I would say this one is a must for fans of early Elegy works (Labyrinth of dreams, Supremacy, Lost). It appears here that either Eduard Hovinga has matured or he had lost a part of his range or both. His vocal is very rough more in the style of Elegy's Lost than the first Prime Time. Still his voice his very good, it's a little drawback from the unknown. But still a lot to enjoy. The instrumental parts and the vocals are very much hard rock for most of the album.Although it doesn't improve anything over The Unknown, something very important happened. The production is Kicking. At last we don't get that clear mastering the first tree elegy as long as the unknown had.The rest of the ensemble is good.Buy it if you already got The Unknown. If your looking to try only one, try The Unknown. The production is weaker, but the composition is maybe a little stronger.",36018

1,"Preconceptions at the door, please","American Psycho, in its literary form, is a difficult read, as it comes off as pure graphic exploitation. The violence is so strong that many readers were blinded to the sporadic humour of the piece, often laugh out loud funny. Happily, the film takes all the redeeming qualities of the novel and builds on them, creating another beast entirely. The film plays as a black comedy, not horror. There is a little bloodshed for the Fangoria hounds here, but most of the violence is off screen, left to the dark pits of imagination. Christian Bale gives a career making performance, making Patrick Bateman a ridiculous blend of Casey Casem and any masked axe wielding killer you could think of. But most importantly the film acts as a satirical look at the cultural emptiness of the eighties, and the emptiness of Bateman. Don't be afraid! This is a great film just waiting to be discovered.",47967
1,Old Goriot is superb,"I've read a lot of Balzac and I love this with LOST ILLUSIONS probably most of all. The portrait of the old man, father to two selfish girls, who beggars himself to fulfill a dream is a superb. This is a good book to start with. One thing I must say is check your translations carefully. Some of the cheaper editions of this aren't very good. PENGUIN is probably the most consistently good translator of this wonderful writer.",43070

0,Boring,I downloaded this book on my Kindle because it was cheap and had good reviews. I wished I had not bothered. It started out very very slow and introduced too many characters in the beginning. It was very confusing. It wasn't until I reached 50% complete did I get somewhat interested in the story. I would not recommend this book to anyone.,46043

1,Dreams of Alexander,"When reading this book a few years ago, I recall waking up in the middle of the night from vivid dreams of participating in or seeing ancient battles and camp sites. How many history books can do that to you? On the more intellectual side, realizing the single handed trans-continental Hellenic world creation as consequence of Alexander's crazy ambition is the kind of twist in history that made me think if the whole course of history would be the same without him - Alexander the great. I got a feeling of Alexander's personality beyond the glory truly brought to life, without diminishing anything from a glory well deserved.",21120

1,Great for feeding,"I use the tray in conjunction with the Bumbo chair to feed my 6 month old. It works very well for this and she also likes to sit in the chair with the tray on and play. The only down side to this is that she throws the toys on the floor so I am continuously picking them up.The tray does take some work to get on the chair as the chair is very flexible and if I don't get it on properly my daughter is able to lift it off. That would be the only disadvantage that I see, but I love the chair and the tray has made it that much better.",31875

Not only is there the dancing portion, but it also includes whack a mole and pinball. All games played by stepping on the pad. This game is great for coordination. At first, she could not handle the dancing portion (which has three levels) but after playing whack a mole, she can handle most of the easiest dance songs. Everyone in family had a turn, even the adults. The kids complete the games better than adults do, but we all loved it.",31926

It hurt his bottom so badly that he cried & said ""oh mommy my legs!"" It's not great to start potty training with a painful experience. He is now afraid of it.I don't know if my son just has very sensitive skin or if it's because he is too big for the chair, but I switched to a soft seat that goes on the big toilet & we are trying that now.

1,"Good stuff, beautiful voice","My friend got me too listen to Mylene first. I was reluctant, having never been a francopile, and having recoiled in cringing horror at most euro-pop I'd heard. Mylene's pieces however are different, often seeming to be colored with a very genuine sense of melancholy. Mylene has a very beautiful and versatile voice, and most of the songs are very pleasing. I could, however, do without Psychiatric and Beyond My Control. It's a personal taste thing, and this is a personal review. Maybe I'm being a little stingy with 4 stars... I'd rate it 9 of 10, were that an option. But it's not, and I'm therefore saving a rating of 5 for those albums that border upon absolute perfetion... a personal thing, again.",5519

0,"""Chasing A Plot"" is More Like It","As a fan of Peter Mayle, I can't tell you how let down I was by this extremely slight, jetsetting-but-going-nowhere novel. I enjoyed the lighthearted A Year in Provence and Hotel Pastis, so I wasn't expected War and Peace by a long shot. But this (perhaps mercifully) short novel does nothing to evoke the landscape, whet the reader's appetite for fine food and gracious living, or even hint at character development. Too many stock characters (the dashing photographer, the take-no-prisoners editor, the perfectly pressed art dealer, the starry-eyed first-time-in-Paris ingenue). And the quick pacing leads to a disappointing denouement, which is -- sacre bleu! -- even more lackluster than the author's description of the colorful art which is purportedly being ""chased."" The extra star is only for my fondness of Mayle's other books: Otherwise, I'd only give it one. Two dreary thumbs down.",5419
0,Not recommended!,"I had high hopes for this book, but it did not deliver. Endless pages of experiments, all to prove the same point.

1,The Best Yet,"A couple of months ago when I obtained a sampler of this CD, i was blown away. Of course there is always the fear that they put the best songs on the demo so that you are enticed into buying it...not the case. This is the best Supertones yet by far. Turning to a slightly harder more rap influenced style than they were back in the beginning but still true to their style, Loud and Clear provides you with all that you could crave out of an album. Song 5 Return to Revolution i think its called is my favorite song by far.

0,Not impressive on so many levels,"Not only does Crichton build classic, generic, one level personality types, but he also utilizes the same redundant formula he always does - man advances - man's advance gets out of control and threatens to do him in. In this case he uses nanotechnology as the ""fearful antagonist"" but he is not technically accurate, or even complete when describing his own pretend version of the technology. The scariest thing about Prey is not the plot (highly predictable) but rather that his portrayal might actually influence people into believing that this is the real nanotechnology of the future, and it is not. The nanotechnology of the future will have amazing benefits, cures for cancer, solutions for environmental issues and food for all (try a Google search). And while any emerging technology has it's cautionary side (remember when human jobs were predicted to be replaced with computers by 1985?). Crichton's tale is merely a fictional account, and a poor one at that.",27701

1,Bella Bello,Great product. The hardest thing about assembling this item is the unpacking and that was very easy. All the hardware plus comes with this product to insure immediate assembly and mounting of the different size flat panel TVs as advertised. My only criticism is the lack of cover to hide all the equipment cables and surge protector that end up on the floor behind the unit. A little more thought in design would have made this unit perfect. Looks great and the shinny piano finish (high gloss black) gives this beautifully designed piece the look that it deserves.,45726

My biggest complaint is that they should make the last 2 feet of the roll of film pink or something so that you know when it is about to run out.

The print quality of the VHS version was quite good and the dubbing job is excellent, considering the shabby treatment that most Japanese animated films recieve. This is, first and foremost, a film of remarkable beauty and warmth. It is precious and timeless. By all means take advantage of the low price and share it with children.

1,We're off to the races!,"I love a good story that can bring 4-6 characters from different walks of life together. Of course it always helps to have one of them a Special Forces, Black Ops or SEAL and someone in the government (or the Whole Government) as the bad guy(s). I like series books too - as long as they're all previously published. I hate to wait. My favorites are Anthony DeCosmo's ""Beyond Armageddon"" and Richard Phillips' ""The Rho Agenda"".Having said that, I think I hit pay dirt again with Bob Mayer's Area 51 series. His first book in the series, AREA 51, has a good group: Special Forces guy, free lance reporter, archeologist and (Nazi) Physicist (eclectic group). Flawlessly bring them together to challenge a mad (?) Air Force General in charge of Area 51 and you got a great story line.I just started REPLY.If you are interested, the order of the series goes something like this: Area 51; Reply; Mission; Sphinx; Grail; Excalibur; Truth.

1,great book,"Although I do have a few complaints about the book, I really liked it. Most of my complaints involved wanting more - more artist commentary, more concept drawings, that sort of thing. The book has an introduction written by Hayao Miyazaki, a section with concept sketches, a section with concept sketches, backgrounds, and character designs, and a section explaining how computer graphics were used in the movie. This book even has the movie's screenplay. I really enjoyed the concept sketches, which show how original ideas changed to create the final product. For instance, a sketch of Zeniba and Yubaba shows how much Zeniba's design changed - she looks more normally proportioned than her sister. Later in the book, there is an explanation for why the change in Zeniba's design occurred. I also enjoyed the computer graphics section, because I would never have noticed any of the things they pointed out on my own. I foudn it fascinating, they way they blended cel art and digital art so well.",16679

0,This MP3 Player is O.K.,"I bought this MP3 Player thinking it would be really great but it turned out to be not as great as I thought it would be.Things I like:~It is small and easy to carry with you wherever you go.~The earphones are nice and comfortable.~It looks very cool.~It comes with a carrying case and a thing to carry it on your arm.Things I didn't like:~One time I turned the volume up just a little and it blasted so loud that it hurt my ears.~When you pull of the squishy things on the earphones to clean them, sometimes the earphones fall apart and you have to push them back together.~The worst thing about it is that it is horrible at sorting the music. I put on lots of different songs by different artists and it screwed almost all of it up. Songs were not put in the right albums and tons of other thing s were totally not right.

0,How can a 98-page book seem so interminable?,"I loved I SERVED THE KING OF ENGLAND and found the repetitions in it rhetorically effective, but found TOO LOUD not just boring but very irritating.

Short as it is, the book seems incredibly padded (a mildly amusing ten-page allegory is elephantine at 98!).",33725

1,My favorite Autechre album,"This is a wonderful album, and my favorite by the group, mostly because of the great melodies. Autechre takes time to reveal each song to you, allowing you to appreciate each and every sound you hear. The rhythms and melodies blend together very nicely. If you'd like to try Autechre out, this is the album I'd recommend first.",13117

BECAUSE OF MY WEIGHT AND THE FACT THAT I'M RH- AND HE'S NOT, I'LL PROBABLY BE HIGH-RISK. THIS IS THE ONLY BOOK THAT I'VE READ THAT DOES MORE THAN DEVOTE A PAGE OR TWO TO THIS SUBJECT (HIGH-RISK PREGNANCIES). IT GOES OVER EVERYTHING - ESPECIALLY THINGS THAT OTHER BOOKS EITHER DON'T OR WON'T GO OVER VERY MUCH LIKE COMPLICATIONS, HIGH-RISK & PREGNANCY LOSS.I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK TO ANYONE!!! I LIKED THIS MUCH BETTER THAN WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN YOU'RE EXPECTING!!!",12734
0,"Interesting, but empty","It's an easy read, but I mostly found it interesting because there were many similarities to my own youth and computer education.

1,Clever and well-written. A great collection/great writer,"RUNAWAY is one fantastic collection, the same way McCrae's CHILDREN'S CORNER is and the way HAUNTED is. All are stellar short stories and thank goodness that these authors are still plowing the fertile ground of this genre. The story whose impact lingers longest is ""Powers"" which is too big in all ways to try and summarize. Read it, and be moved by writing that seems beyond storytelling, that feels like Truth Itself. Reading Munro at the height of her art is like listening to John Coltrane play the saxophone - there's a point where analysis breaks down and all you can do is pay homage to genius. I highly recommend that you check out this wonderful collection today.",35414
1,"DO NOT READ before seeing ""Beyond the Mat""","We saw ""Beyond the Mat"" last night. Mick Foley did such a great job writing ""Have A Nice Day"" that I felt as though I knew the characters. I felt that Colette and the kids were my friends. I couldn't stand seeing them cry when Mick was in the ring. I am probably the only person in the world who will cry at ""Beyond the Mat"" but I couldn't watch those people whom Mick had portrayed as flesh and blood human beings. I don't think I realized just how good this book was until I saw a movie with the same people -- and they were familiar. ""In that one moment they had somehow become friends. There does not seem much chance of their meeting again in that world or any other. But if they ever do they will rush together with their hands held out."" (C.S.

It automatically titles most of them ""unknown,"" so it's impossible to find anything. I also really hate it that you can't delete tracks from the player itself, you can only do it when it's hooked up to your computer. But the sound quality is pretty good and it's really light - but don't get it for podcasts or any other kind of sound recordings other than traditional albums.",14209

Of the games 8 characters (yes, 8) only 4 were created by naughty Dog and have appeared on the PS1. In fact, 2 characters were created just for CTTR.Also, clashing is fun but is pretty much a copy of Mario Kart Double Dash. In fact, that's what this whole game is. So good people, lend me your ears.

Field divorces him,and meanie that she is,bars him from seeing the kids.How does Robin Williams solve his problem? He dresses as a Scottish nanny. Robin Williams is a REALLY ugly woman. The kids think he's fun. In the end,""Mrs.Doubtfire"" acts as a matchmaker between Sally Field and new boyfriend 007,Pierce Brosnan. Over family dinner,""Mrs.Doubtfire"" gushes about his ex-wife's ""crabs"" to Brosnan.

0,The Fornication Lobby,"Athough the author has scholarly credentials, this is not a scholarly work. It is an exercise in rage---rage that the Church still proclaims the value of chastity in the midst of the bourgeoisie's ongoing sexual revolution.The author sees signs of homosexuality everywhere in Catholicism. Incense, Marian devotions, vestments---they all show occult signs of homosexuality. The signs, of course, are so occult that most us can't see it. I never realized what an erotic thirll chasubles secretly are.The poor author can't quite figure out where his rant will go---although he's certain that John Paul II is the enemy. On the one hand, he yells about the alleged predominance of homosexuals in the clergy and in the seminaries. But that sounds too homophobic. So he then rants that the Church isn't homosexual enough. It's too straight, too pro-family, too traditional.Poor scholarship, another sad screed from the anti-Catholic Catholic.",34076

It took forty minutes, no joke, to unlcog this toilet after it stopped up. I literally got a workout doing it and I suppose the clogged up toilet paper eventually brokedown and allowed the toilet to flush.I called Kohler about this and they said it's a known issue, yet they were not smart enough to fix it. The new Cimarron and similar models have the very same issue. Kohler suggested a special type of plunger which we bought and paid extra money for yet it also could not plunge the toilet. Aside from this whenever anything gets caught on the sides of the bowel, it will not flush because of the way the toilet is designed.We are getting rid of this toilet and I cannot wait to flush this toilet in a dumpster--goodbye Kohler!",18385
1,Great for church youth groups and leadership teams!,"I use this book all the time at church with my youth group and with the adult leaders. I have found great mixers in the front of the book to help people get to know one another and in the back of the book the chapter called Open Up has good activities to get people to share about themselves more easily. The middle is filled with tons of team-building activities and it is easy to find something that fits my needs, from a short table game challenge for our weekly dinner to more involved teamwork tasks for our weekend retreats. I also find useful activities for leadership meetings to build community among the adult leaders of the youth group as well.

1,One of the best Heyers,"The story summary seemed a bit dour, so I had my doubts about this one. What a fantastic book. Hugo's character is absolutely great as are a host of others. I won't give it away by going into too much detail, but he will surprise! Heyer always has great plotting, but in this case, it is an especially good romp. Some may feel disappointed that the romantic resolution that we all look forward to, is not the absolute final step in the book. Again, surprisingly, she makes it work wonderfully. As I move through her stories, this one, Venetia, The Nonesuch, The Masqueraders, These Old Shades and Devil's Cub are my favorites. Ms. Heyer is an addicting read even for those who aren't primarily romance readers.",3089
1,Informative and eye-opening!,"I am thrilled with Jacob Liberman's ""Light Medicine Of The Future!"" Liberman covers a broad spectrum of light applications, no pun intended. His studies include hard evidence and documentation of these studies. His personal research on full spectrum light is astounding. Many physical and mental problems can be attributed to mallilumination. The studies prove that children and adults exposed to poor lighting, especially that of cool white flourescents, harbor many ill effects. As the sales manager for a company specializing in full spectrum lighting, I have recommended this book to many customers and close friends. I also find myself referring to information located in Liberman's book almost daily. A great find!",331

1,Now this is a cool movie!,"I bought the Snatch DVD without knowing what to expect. I had read mixed reviews for it, so I was a little concerned that I wouldn't enjoy it. But my worries were all for nothing. Snatch is an incredible movie. A great plot, amazing characters, and spectacular performances make this one of the best films I've ever seen. Brad Pitt, Rade Sherbadgia, Jason Statham, and Alan Ford give the four best performances as the almost intelligible gypsy bare knuckle boxer Mickey, the crooked Russian gun salesman Boris the Blade, boxing promoter Turkish, and ruthless gangster Brick Top, respectively. And the characters of Vinny, Sol, and Tyrone (the actors names fail me at the moment) will have you laughing constantly. The DVD has some pretty good special features, including some sweet deleted scenes. If you're a fan of cinema in general, buy Snatch. You won't be disappointed.",39993

Everyone dreamt of hidden treasures as a kid, well, when you've seen this movie you're glad you never actually went looking for one! Like Leprechaun's Pot o' Gold, everyone is chasing it.

Many big guns does not a good movie make.Those big guns lost control and ended up with a ""B"" movie at best.

Snipes and DeNiro are excellent, as is the story of the fan who is sick of being taken for a ride by his heroes, who care little about the Fan. The only down is the dark lighting at the games, but you get used to it, and enjoy the movie.

1,"Historical tale with a modern twist, worth watching","Loosely inspired from the life of Mughal Emperor Akbar, this movie focuses on his efforts to appease his Hindu subjects by taking a Hindu wife, doing away with pilgrimage fees, and unifying Northern India by conquest under his generally benevolent rule. History is rewritten to suit our modern sensibilities - Jodha was neither Akbar's only wife nor a skilled swordswoman who loved cooking and caligraphy, Akbar was not an athletic and handsome ruler with a democratic heart, and the existence of his evil, politically powerful wet nurse is yet to be documented. With its veneer of authenticity, well-chosen songs, lavish costumes, and numerous reenacted battles, the movie succeeds in recreating the golden age of Mughal rule in Northern India. An educational cinematic experience for Westerners unfamiliar with those times.",35908

0,This would get a C-minus in 10th grade world history.,"Perhaps I had the wrong expectation. The brief amount I heard on NPR made me feel I was going to learn about Hawaiian culture and maybe hear stories. This book was written in the time-honored tradition of one American explaining why other Americans should feel bad about being American. Not that she is wrong or has any of her facts misplaced. But Susanna has written a disjointed, self-serving, whining account of Hawai'i. Maybe she is lamenting the loss of a childhood that she may or may not have ever had. But each chapter is kind of summed up the same way: the noble Hawai'ian, raped literally or figuratively by the Westerner in the name of progress or profit. I am hoping that she has a chance to spend time with her therapist (since she has found reason now to live in New York).",48523

How sad that all Nashville studios seem to turn out in their female artists are cloned, generic pop-like slush. I couldn't tell the difference between Faith and any other female singer on the radio with this album. An overall disappointment in song choices and performance. Too bad, because I really wanted to like it.",26569

1,"Original Hit Recordings but "" Tampered "" sound","I have most of Neil Sedakas Hit Singles from when they were first released on 45 RPM so I am more than familiar with the original sound. I bought this CD as it contained those songs plus a few additional ones that I do not recall as being Hits here in the USA.As with many re-issues of older material on CD, the sound has been so called "" Digitally ReMastered "" which to me, makes this CD not as authentic as the orignal 45RPM issues of Neils original Hits. What I think I am going to have to do is re-record this CD ( for my own personal use ) by putting both stereo channels together and hope the Monaural sound comes closer to the way these songs were originally meant to be heard.It is a good CD if you want a clean sound, they are the original RCA Victor Hit recordings, just separated into 2 channels.

It tells you how to print variable to popup widows and that's it. It pretends that this is all the output any person using JavaScript would or should ever need. They never address output to the web page itself. Never even mention it. Not once. That's just what I need to do with my arrays, print them to a popup alert window. I would have appreciated at least a small message as to *why* they don't tell you about such simple and basic stuff. This book is really pretty bad. I suggest you try another one on JavaScripting.

0,A let down after Frontline,"I'm not a big FPS games fan, but I got hooked on to MOH Frontline which I thoroughly enjoyed. So I bought MOH Rising Sun expecting it to be even better...what a let down it was! The game was way too easy and when it abruptly came to an end, I was very disappointed. The storyline and missions are not bad, but the level of difficulty and the dumb soldiers are ridiculous. The graphics are mediocre. In the single-player missions your comrades sometimes get in between you and the enemy, and your enemy can still shoot at you but you can't! I think two pluses for this game - it now costs only 15 bucks or so, and the game has save points all along the various missions (a big improvement over Frontline).",17221

If it was not for this song this cd would have definately got five stars. The rest of the cd is performed remarkably well.

As for the music...Beethoven will curse her from his grave! She wasted a goldmine of possibilities using Beethoven, Paganini and Tchaikovski only to create atmosphere. Stefan? A weak character from every point of view. The best part was the beginning, Triana's mourning, but even that was too slow!

Quoted in NME, Ana Matronic said at a London show that London was the group's new hometown, and that ""British people are smarter than Americans.""

0,"This book does not live up to its title of ""Making Sense""","Walters becomes very wordy in her second chapter and continues throught the entire book this way. She has several interesting chapters in which she gives critical interpretations of popular films and television shows, however, they fail to make up for the dullness of the entire book. She is overly critical of previous methods of feminist criticism, while at the same time almost cocky about her own superior viewpoint. In the end, she never actually has a viewpoint of her own, except that someone else should pick up the ball and develop a new feminist methodology. Her wordiness seemed to be nothing more than a cover for a lack of original thought. This book is definately not for the new student of feminism or for the skeptic.

If you do, then you will almost certainly loose touch with reality, become a psychotic basket case, terrorize your children & neighbors. The end result is that your more stable, Blue-state friends (who had the good sense to stay in the city) will have to put you out of your misery when they come to ""help"" you.

There are also a few livelier pieces for daytime play.

And I'm not just talking about the terrier's fate. Its stupid owner pierced its nose and forced it to drink alcohol. Yeah, that's really funny. On the positive side of the movie, Robert Englund was great as a suspicious professor, and the female campus cop with delusions of grandeur provided some comic relief. Mostly though, this movie sucked. The only scary moments were in the very beginning--the gas station scene. I got a few chills from that one.

I'd actually consider buying Denali bagged tool sets again, if only for the bag. Maybe they should scrap tool making and just sell bags.Also, this set came with a material disclaimer note which I think pertained to the apparently toxic resin used to make the plastic case - Ha!

0,ANNOYING TOY!!!!!!!,"My daughter got this toy for her birthday . . . yesterday! This toy is soooooo annoying! Over and over again Elmo asks you to check his bandage, his heart, his temperature, and to wipe his nose. Also, I think his nose is hard to wipe. You actually have to squeeze his nose for him to acknowledge that you've wiped it. Checking his heart is the same way. You have to push hard on his chest. My daughter can handle checking his temperature and his bandage, but cannot do the other two things I just mentioned. It is frustrating for her and she brings the toy to me and asks me to wipe his nose. I wish I could take this toy back, but too late. It has been opened and used. What a waste of $20. This toy will probably end up in my yard sale or at the bottom of my daughter's toy box where we don't have to hear it very often.",46472
1,Brilliant example of living history,"The world now knows how the bigger part of this story played out. Nelson Mandela was freed, the ANC voted into power, and the Apartheid system dismantled. This made the sacrifices portrayed in this wonderful film all the more poignant. Donald Sutherland gave a great performance as the central hero, and the wonderful Marlon Brando, a whimsical, but impressive representation of the human rights lawyer, jaded by his past jousting with blind justice, but incapable of turning his back on the evils of South African Police state. The South African support cast are also impressive. The film is not a masterpiece, but it holds attention because of the power of the story, and the first class acting. One would have to have ice in their veins or be a dyed in the wool racist not to be moved to tears by the replaying of these dreadful crimes.",20648

1,The Bible is Green,"This booklet is a short but very clear explanation of how the Bible is green through and through: it is about the alienation of human beings from God and God's creation, and how God has acted again and again to restore right relations between God, human beings, and the rest of creation.

1,Great for small spaces,"I bought this vaccum to use at our business. It is a good vacuum for smaller areas such as an apartment. For bigger jobs, I would not reccomend it. Get a Dyson or even a Rainbow for a bigger home.It has great suction for our small office and the attachments work well for getting into corners and smaller areas. Although, it is just a very loud vacuum!One thing that was a pain, was that this vacuum came in a box and was in what seemed a thousand peices! It would have been nice if it was at least partially assembled.All in all, for the price, it is very good vacuum. Lightweight, good suction, easy to use (once assembled)!",30607
1,Living Still....,"This album was bought for me when I was 10 years old on vinyl and it's always been one of my favorites. It doesn't have a lot of the ""wall of sound"" schlock that the Phil Spector produced All Things Must Pass contains and it seems more authentically George. Another observation is that while the never ending court travails influenced one or two tracks on this album, George wasn't yet overwhelmed by the My Sweet Lord case which seemed to dominate some of his later music. All in all one of my favorite post-Beatle albums by any of the Fab Four.",14559
1,A razor's edge between self-confidence and hubris,"About half way through his book, Jack Welch observes that ""there's only a razor's edge between self-confidence and hubris."" He implies that he rarely crosses the line, when, in reality, the unbiased observer is likely to conclude after reading ""Jack"" that he crosses the line frequently. If, however, the reader can tolerate the continuous self-congratulation, there are a great many insights to be gained in this book. (To be fair, diffident people do not accomplish what Welch did.)",15735

They are wonderful bottles that cured my daughter's gas and spit up problems!In response to other reviews, you need to not fill it up pass the DO NOT FILL line in order for them not to leak--although I have never had a problem with any leakage.These bottles are absolutely THE BEST. My daughter is now one and is still using Dr. Brown's. I highly recommend this product!",11340
0,Overpriced,"Some critical information is worth highlighting to the unsuspecting prospective buyer:First, the book is roughly half the size of a normal book. So its 78 pages of content is equivalent to about 34 pages of a normal sized book. Second, 20 of its 78 pages are devoted to a short biography of Bonhoeffer. Third, there is no exegesis on the individual Psalms. Forth, much of the information in the book is available free in the internet.In short, one is getting about 24 normal sized pages of general comments on Psalms and 10 normal sized pages of Bonhoeffer biography, much of which is available in the internet.",7637

0,A Classic Work Of Fiction,"This is a very strange book that combines a 19th century evolutionary behavioral view of societal evolution with a misreading of quantum theories of physics to build a blindly procapitalist vision of an e-future in which workers escape the irrationalities and troubles of our economy by being given stock options by their suddenly trustworthy employers. The author seems unaware of many developments in the behavioral, economic and social sciences during the last thirty years, and attempts overcome these shortcomings by declaring his ""new"" managerial strategies by declaring them to be ""postmodern."" It would be interesting to know what Wallace makes of the post-internet economic collapse that he believed would make us all happy, well paid laborers. The world he predicted does not exist and never will, and this book is a record of how so many Americans were tricked into believing their bosses as they were tricked to work for worthless stock notes.",13237

However, if you own another Scene it? game, you can easily use that in place of the real The OC board. However, the buzz cards are still missing.

0,Traditional Hollywood [garbage],"This is yet another poorly done martial arts movie. The acting (what acting?) is garbage. The plot is much the same. Also, being a blue-belt in Tae Kwon Do (Take my dough) and a green belt in ninjitsu (student of Stephen Hayes) I have a pretty good idea of what is and is not realistic in a fight. The martial arts used is standard Tae Kwon Do (mostly kicks; mostly for competition). So basically the fighting is completely unrealistic (when's the last time you saw someone throw a kick after the first 5 seconds of a fight?).This unrealistic fighting wouldn't be as bad for your suspension of disbelief if it wasn't for the ... plot and acting. If you want to see a similarly-themed movie that is at least slightly better I'd reccomend ""Blood Sport"". At least Van Damne has 2nd-rate acting skills which is still way over the abilities of any actors in this movie.",16733
1,Works great but is quite toxic,"This stuff is amazing and completely useful if you superglue stuff more than occasionally. I've never seen it in a store, possibly because it is quite toxic. I have to be very careful not to breathe the fumes, or I get a day-long headache. I also know a co-worker who got some in his eye and suffered permanent damage to his vision. Also, it speeds up the superglue so much that the it gets extremely hot (sometimes even smokes).In a nutshell, this product works great but BE CAREFUL.",3924
1,Nudity! Ugh! How could the rest of you not mention this!,"My title says most of it, though I did find the language (excessive swearing and use of the F-word) quite a bit questionable. It WAS a good movie, but I don't understand why none of the rest of the other people who reviewed this film mentioned it. But other than that, it was an outstanding movie and I found no other problems with it. Harrison Ford is my favorite actor, and I agree that this is one of his better films. His performance after being shot and recovering was excellent and I commend him.",4134

1,A Modern Classic,"Mel Gibson is wonderful as Scottish warrior William Wallace. He brings an sense of dignity to the role, while playing a warrior. The story is one of great proportions.It involves Scotland trying to win it's freedom from England in the 1200's. A leading force in this struggle is a group led by William Wallace (wonderfully played by Mel Gibson)and many others. As his wife, we find the lovely Sophie Marceau,who is excellent. Her character meets a tragic end at the hand of an English soldier. This only fuels Wallace's conquest further. What really makes this film great is wonderful actors like Gibson and Marceau. As well as the storyline, which is just about as good a Historical Drama as they come. I recommend this film to anyone who wants to swept away into a great film",44822

0,"Worst ""turn"" yet!",After the first two movies which were 5 or 6/10 this one was a real let down. The acting is poor and the story is poor. It would have helped to have more deformed bad guys rather than just one throughout the whole film. As there are families of baddies in the woods I though the film would have progressed from the second film and developed more of a story into the third film but this doesn't happen. The gore is what you expect with a couple of tasty deaths but the acting really is bad and let's the film down badly.You can see why this was a straight to DVD movie..hopefully they don't try and make a 4th one unless a good budget is used. You can see when the actors are in the bus that the road ahead is cheaply added into the film to save money...Don't bother with this film 2/5.,14549

0,Unconvincing,"The adaptation to modern times of this zarzuela is unconvincing. The cubicles might have worked for the stage, but they don't work for the DVD version and absolutely distract from the music. At some points it is difficult to understand who is who and who is talking (or singing). I don't object the time adaptation per se, but this one does not enhance this masterpiece, on the contrary it takes away the essence of it, it makes following the plot and sensing the music difficult. In addition, the sound production is flat and at some points very week and confusing. In summary, not a good DVD to enjoy a zarzuela Spaniards are so proud of.",38934

In many of those cases descriptons on how to get to the trailheads where inaccurate, or if or what parking pass is required at some of the trailheads. But what really is missing is information on the road conditions to the trailheads: I found that many of them can only be accessed with a four wheel drive or high clearance vehicle -- something that would be good to know ahead of timeif you only have a plain old passenger car like I do. My recommendation is to take the information in this book with a grain of salt and to consult at least one other hiking guidebook before you venture out to go hiking.",17285

He also talks in the beginning about your skull and your heart in a very biological way--not terribly relaxing visualizations. It actually made me a little tense. He also kept saying to relax over and over...maybe it's just me, but I think it should be done more subtly--if telling someone to relax was all it took, we'd all be a lot more relaxed.",41988

As far as its influence on society goes, this short novel is obviously quite significant.

1,THRUST Review,"Great 80's fusion. This album must be the missing link between fusion and today's smooth jazz. An aggresive,visceral taste of Jazz, Rock and Latin. Highly recomended. I even checked out their website http://thrustmusic.net/, great later 90's music by the same group.I especially liked the song called NIGHT OF THE TIGER. Definitely deserves wider recognition.E.L. Frans",41989
1,Excellent product,"The Bodum Eileen 4-cup Coffee Press is the perfect way to make just the right amount of coffee for one or two people. In regards to the other review, I don't agree that the heading is misleading. I have never seen a coffee pot or maker that listed the number of cups based on the 8 oz measuring cup. In coffee terms a cup is usually 4 or 5 ounces per 'cup'. The number of cups is really the number of regular servings not fluid ounces. And with that in mind this product is perfect for making great coffee with out brewing a full sized pot which most of sits to long to enjoy.",21618
1,This book rocks!,"Oh, my, goodness, this is the best book! It's perfect for ages 0-1,5876. It is an imaganative story about an three aunts (there are supposed to be five, but one got put in jail for hitting a chef on the head with a wok because he was making steaks out of an endangered animal, and the other one shaved her legs(oh, the horror) and married a tax inspector) who live on an island and take care of all the animals there. It's a truly spectacular book, and I recommend it to everyone.",7452

0,Yuck!,"I do a lot of gluten-free baking, and I'm always on the lookout for products to make this more convenient. I love to bake, but sometimes, I'm too busy to want to do everything from scratch. This mix made terrible, terrible cake. It was spongy, rubbery, and had a strange bitter, chalky aftertaste (I blame an excess of starch in the flour mix). It did not taste like chocolate at all. All I can say is that I will never buy this again, and I'm glad I tried a bite of it before wasting frosting on it!",4298

1,comprehensive guide for developing one's abilities,"I have read a whole bunch of different books for developing psychic ability and while some were very good, this is the best I have encountered so far. I was so impressed with the book I saught the author out for a reading. I received a a phone reading a few days ago, and her information was accurate and VERY helpful for me, which gives me even more faith in following through with the work outlined in the book.I really appreciate how she includes exercises for many practical purposes, such as grounding and clearing out negative energy. I especially like the exercise for Calling Back Your Energy. Even though she is a professional psychic, she actually instructs the readers in detail how they can develop their own abilities and read for others. Now, that's generous!",30828

0,Powerboat basics,"As an experienced sailor switching over to powerboats I have been reading both magazines and "" How to Choose,"" books on powerboating.I figure with such a large purchase you can never be to well read.I found Gould's book to be too basic for someone with boating experience.The chapters are brief and often read like a text book.I also purchased Lamy's boat buying book and found it to be more detailed and loaded with interesting anecdotes. Gould's book does get into more details on boat accessories such as anchors, air-conditioning, refrigeration,and electronics and these topics are not well covered by Lamy.Lamy gives tremendous detail on the purchase process, but only briefly covers accesories and primary systems. I recommend this book as a quick read to inexperienced boat buyers,but recommend that experienced boaters also read a few other books to suppliment ""How to Choose Your First Powerboat.""",29521
1,A great start,"This book is the testament of a determined person who has raised the consciousness of a parish. He along with others refused to be refused a right that many of us take for granted today. From the Scott Scholarship to the visits Cleo Brown makes to Louisiana (thank you Tallulah for bringing her October 2003!), John H. Scott lives on. His words ring out pride in yourself and hope for your community. I am challenged to not let his and others' efforts go in vain. This book, which certainly has a place in (a certain book club), should be read by every student in the Delta area. They should know that great people can come from humble beginnings. Thank you John H. Scott Memorial fund for helping me through school and thank you Cleo Brown for compiling this book to help me through life.",30554
0,Great commercial success does not mean great movie,"It is a sad commentary on the tastes of the American public that a movie such as Titanic can be given such outstanding reviews, not to speak of the 11 academy awards. The acting of the main characters was pitiful, the story line created for the film was weak, and the movie gives new meaning to the 60's term 'camp'. To reuse a somewhat hackneyed phrase ""No one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public.""",47549
0,Disappointed,"This telephone system isn't all its cracked up to be. They constantly need recharging and sometimes just cut me off in the middle of a telephone call. Also, the display suddenly doesn't work and Seimens refuses to fix it.I gave it a rating of one because it looks good and it has good features. But what good are the features if the whole thing doesn't work anyway. I guess you get what you pay for.",42049
1,definitely spreadin the lovin vibe!,"This sophomore effort is definitely worthy of your collection!! It will make you hop, dance, and feel the love and energy that they work so hard to bring to the world. The lyrics are soulful and heartfelt. Each song is a new journey into a realm of happiness and love. These guys have the ability to make beautiful music with anything they can get their hands on.

I lost count of the number of times I burst into laughter while reading the language, and the antics of these characters. It's a quick read, and will leave you wishing there were more. Never heard of Joseph Lincoln? I hadn't either. Give it a try on your Kindle. You can't beat FREE!!!! Thank you Amazon.",20750
1,love it,"If you're interested in different parts of the country and you enjoy statistics, this book is awesome. Obviously it's not 100% accurate; how do you seriously rank 300+ metropolitan areas? But taking it with a grain of salt, it's fascinating to see what crime is like New Orleans, or how depressed people are in the Pacific NW. How cold is Anchorage in January? Does Charleston, SC have good restaurants? (it does) It's even more interesting if you're considering moving. Mine is falling apart I've looked at it so much.",22259

1,Good lifting chalk/poor for climbing,"This chalk, for the price was perfect. My one complaint is I had ordered it for climbing and not lifting. It's a very smooth and fine chalk (even the chunks break smoothly...silky is another word to use). I find this to be very effective for lifting, but when it comes to climbing, I prefer a chalk with a bit more grit. Let my team use it, and they agree, it's just too fine for climbing. Don't get me wrong, its not terrible for climbing, it dries your hands just fine, but again, myself and my team, we prefer a bit of grit.",35398
1,"Excellent History Of The Scottish Rite, SJ","I found this book extremely interesting. It follows the Scottish Rite, Southern Juristiction, from its beginnings in 1801 to the new millinium. I like the way the book focuses on each of the Grand Commanders and what problems and circumstances they had to face in their years of office. My only complaint is that there were not enough photos, however, that comlaint is minor. By the way, after writing this book, William L. Fox wrote 'Valley Of The Craftsmen', which is an illustrated history of the Scottish Rite, SJ. Both compliment each other and are excellent!",35315

There are 4 servings per package and 800 mg. of salt in EACH serving. That's right, there are 2,400 mg. of sodium in one package. Had I known this I never would have ordered it. Sure it's tasty, because it's so full of salt! This soup is just plain unhealthy. I will not be ordering it or eating it again.",26287

0,Item may be fake and not the real deal,"Satya Sai Baba Nag Champa is some of my favorite incense, so when my local store ran out of stock I decided to give Amazon a try.I bought this from Prasad Gifts via Amazon fulfillment. The box was two years old, and when received the majority of the incense had fallen off the sticks. The incense and the box did not smell like Satya Sai Baba Nag Champa (the box from Amazon was slightly different than the one from the local store, suspect counterfeit).Please do not buy into the few reviews saying the formula has changed to explain away these discrepancies. Boxes I have purchased less than a month ago with 2012 stickers on the box smell just as great (and the same) as this incense smelled in the early 1980's when I started using it. Something is very amiss with this supply.I hope Amazon takes this review into account and investigates the stock and the supplier, bad show all around.",15733

1,Cute series that require some adult supervision/input.,"I bought this book based on how cute the story sounded and as something to put ""spark"" into reading for my very soon to be 5 year old daughter. The story is absolutely adorable but I found myself ""editing"" some words out of the story (ie. ""stupid"") and explaining some plots in the story to my daughter so she'd understand that are not always the right thing to do or say to another kid. It's (the series) definitely a parent/child involvement which, to me, is a great basis for communication and learning establishment between parents and children. My daughter was enchanted to have something to relate to and understand and her interest in bedtime reading has now progressed to replacing some of her favorite cartoons during the day to have mom read a chapter to her. I'm definitely going to start a Junie B. collection for her as long as I'm reading and editing the story to her.",40816

0,Ingredients,"For those wanting to avoid the ubiquitous Splenda, you should be aware that Joint MD contains sucralose, which is what Splenda is. These pills taste very sweet so it seems like a totally unnecessary - and in the opinion of many - unhealthful - addition to the ingredients. Why not make this product without the addition of sucralose? What is the point of making a super-sweet tasing pill, for goodness sake?! It would be greatly improved if they removed this sweetener and I won't buy it again until they do. Other than that ingredient, it seems like a good product, now that the price has come down some.",11241

1,Surprisingly Attractive Documentary,"This film shows how the linguists decoded Mayan records; what they guessed with what clues. It does not emphasize how 'mysterious' the Maya civilization was. It does not exaggerate 'mystique' of Maya records. It scholarly explains the history of the decoding, in the way everybody can understand what the linguists did without difficulty. With this documentary, I could experience all intellectual pleasure of the decoding process; besides it showed the beauty of Mayan alphabets themselves. It's amazing!",8669

1,In the beginning,Have you seen King Kong at the cinemas or on DVD and wanted certain questions answered; Primarily how Carl Denham obtained the map that showed skull island and about the man that grabbed the map. Well if you want answers to these questions then this is the book for you.It gives living accounts of characters that appear in the movie of where they were before they all met. Even Kong makes a special appearance; however he is not the main focus of the story.This is not a story that revolves around Kong. This is most probably the reason why many people would stop reading; however many might want answers to the questions that I did and not be able to put it down.,44006

This did not and yet it did list that it was solid brass. I thought brass was good for potable liquids. It is too small to be practical as a steamer. It is also made in China.",39932
0,"An abject, unmitigated disaster.","This book is so full of egregious factual blunders (e.g., ""Arkansas [was] a slaveholding state that remained in the Union"") as to be totally worthless.

1,Readers from NY and KY - give it a rest.,"I enjoyed this book so much, I bought 3 more copies to give as gifts and I lent out my own copy. Al's writing style may be mostly funny yet his revelations are scary. I do have two complaints - the book is too short (it left me wanting more, more, more examples) and it offered no solutions or recourse for the average joe to fight what is being put out there by the news-as-entertainment industry. As others have pointed out, please notice that most of the 1 star ratings have been written by one person, supposedly from KY or NY.",8635

I leave the house knowing that when I get home my Roomba's trap will be full of dust and hair. It has really improved the cleanliness of my house. It's not perfect- as it does not get edges well, and it does get stuck.

1,Great for Nostalgia Buffs,"As other reviews of books in the Showcase Presents series have noted, this is DC's version of the Marvel Essentials series-- B&W reproductions of comics published decades ago. The comics in this particular edition were originally published between June '58 and Nov '59, when I was eight and nine years old and a voracious comics reader. Even now, I can actually remember reading some of the particular comics that are in this book, and while, to an adult, the stories here are simplistic and even sometimes silly, it was, for nostalgia purposes alone, a real delight to get to re-read them again for the inexpensive price of ten dollars. In fact I sort of feel sorry for children growing up now, who have to make do with comics that are kind of grim and sordid, in contrast to the clearly drawn, cheerful and good-hearted ones that existed back in the fifties and sixties.",37792

It's not a pretty sight. With a keen eye for the telling detail and anecdote, the authors effortlessly navigate the reader through the current debate with clarity and wit. And they offer a rousing call to common sense on one of the most important issues of our time. For anyone interested in illegal immigration, this is a must read.",6080

1,Great First Swing Set,"My 5 month old daughter received this swing set as a gift. She is in the 95th percentile for height, so she is pretty tall for her age. She loves the swing and has plenty of room to grow. The swing doesn't go very high, but it is perfect for her age. The box says that it is for ages 1 year to 4 years of age. I'm not sure that a 4 year old could go in the swing. The slide is small, but a great length for the little ones. At 5 months my daughter is more interested in the swing anyway. We have a small yard and this fits just perfectly. We would have just bought an infant swing for a tree, but there are no trees in the yard. This is the next best thing. It is sturdy, and two days after we put in together we had a snow storm here in NY and there are small holes to drain the water. I think this is a great product for little ones.",7297

1,A must-read!,"Nomberg-Przytyk's story is immediate, brutal, and unrelenting as it sweeps its reader into the horror of survival at the Auschwitz death camp. One will learn about the trickery used by the Nazis to more easily deport the Jews to the death camp, the ""selection"" process for deciding life or death (at which the nefarious Mengele himself was often present), and what it took to survive. I was quite shocked to learn that a prisoner hierarchy system existed at the camp, and that knowing the right combination of certain inmates could help increase one's likelihood of survival. Another aspect of the Holocaust Nomberg-Przytyk covers that rarely gets any mention is the subject of the forced marches preceding the fall of Auschwitz. A truly incredible story, and a must-read and must-own not solely for WWII historians, but for Women's Studies enthusiasts too!",25570

There were moments on this CD where I heard traces of Boston, the ""lite metal"" of Scorpions or Def Lep, and most of all a whole lot of Queen. Unfortunately they've captured only the SOUND of those bands without any of the sparkle or melodic skill that made them special. I'm pretty amazed that there are people giving this album 5 STARS.

0,The warranty is a lie,"Try calling XACT's tech support line at 866-466-9228. You'll find there is no way to talk to a live operator.

They are shirking their responsibility and I can only conclude that their products are of such poor quality that honoring their warranty would bankrupt the company.The product of theirs that I bought was an XACT cordless headset phone (the XG2500) and its battery was useless after 9-10 months from the purchase, lasting about 10 minutes fresh off the charger.

Also, you can only charge one 9V cell at a time, and it sticks into the charger perpendicular to the other cell bays, which means you can't use the cell bays closest to the 9V.

One of the significant struggles for me as an artist is to volley each day between doubt and confidence in my work. Through Ms. Azara's book, I realized that there is also an artistry to trusting myself and my own experience. I have learned through her book and feel that it has helped me to make art with greater risk and richness. I recommend this book for everyone.",47147

1,Highly Recommended Addition to Your Library,"I suffer from Anxiety Disorder with Panic Attacks and Depression. Dr. Raskin's book has been very helpful to me in a variety of ways. Dr. Raskin simply explains the biology of these problems in such a way that I finally understood that I am not at fault, or a ""weak"" person. She gives wonderful views on different medications and their strengths/weaknesses. She answered about 95% of my questions and even answered questions I didn't know that I had. I refer to her book often (it is filled with bookmarks and highlighted areas) and would highly recommend it to anyone struggling with anxiety, panic, depression, OCD, or premenstrual depression. It is especially important to note that Dr. Raskin's book isn't at all ""scary"". Some books on this subject can tend to scare the person who is already anxious. Dr. Raskin is very comforting and wise....she is the psychiatrist you wish you had.",29171

0,To drawn out,I could not wait for this movie to be over. It was too drawn out and I would never think a movie made in the late 70's would have so many sex scenes and be unrated. All in all I wouldnt watch it or buy it again. The story line of the Romans was I think a bit far fetched. If they did behave in that manner and lived in that manner then they all deserved more than death. I just think it really was a waste of two hours when I could have watched something far more appealing. Although Caligula was insane by all means it was just a bit much going on and on and none of the other characters had a chance to progress in the movie it was all about him and no one else. I really didnt appreciate the way they killed his child in the end that was totally disgusting. Well actually the whole entire movie was disgusting from him having and incestuous relationship with his sister to him basically raping a virgin on her wedding day. It was just not my cup of tea.,35863

0,I don't really like this movie,"Maybe I would be more interested in the story of a man SO HAUNTED by his wife's murder that he leads his country to war if the protagonist wasn't smirking and looking quite care-free through the entire film. Maybe I would think him more heroic if the movie didn't show him, inside, on HORSEBACK, killing an old man who was IN HIS BED... from the perspective of the old man!! It showed Randal Wallace, the ""hero,"" killing a bed-ridden geezer from the OLD MAN'S view-point, I'm serious! Am I the only one who had trouble rooting for the elderly-man-crushing hero, telling a few lame jokes to his mates before lightheartedly rushing out to very violently kill dozens of people? The movie can't decide whether it's lighthearted comedy or gripping drama. If you like the movie, don't be offended, I just can't relate to it I guess, mostly because of Mel Gibson's Christ-like killer/hero; he doesn't seem all that brave to me, just really really fake.",19881

0,Not really copper,I have bought these recently and within only a matter of months the finish looks terrible. I think the metal is some kind of alloy coated in copper color finish and clear coated.

1,Luminous is the Night,"This is not music that will change your life. There is no Eroica funeral march here. Nor is there an Alma Mahler waiting in the wings for the judgement of posterity. But if you appreciate Mozart's inexhaustible font of melody, there is much to be said for K 203. It is the best of Mozart's pre-Paris serenades (K 185 & K 204 are both works of immanence). It is atmospheric from the first bar of the little march - one could imagine it being played by Watteau's musicians in the gardens of Vaux-le-Vicomte while the constellations look on.The Serenade is immaculately played by Sir Neville Marriner & the ASMF. Mind you, only one other rival comes to mind; from memory, there was a hideous version by the Collegium Aureum on EMI which has thankfully gone the way of all flesh.It also comes in harness with the ubiquitous Serenata Notturna. It too is consummately played.",48751

The incredients are Hydrolized Collagen 600 mg, Chondroitin Sulfate 200 mg, Hyaluronic Acid 100 mg, MSM 500 mg. I am already getting chondroitin sulfate and MSM in a larger dose in another supplement, and I never tried taking collagen before. I would have like more information about the dose and ingredients before ordering which is why it gets 4 instead of 5 stars. We decided to give the product a fair try, and so far it seems to be helping.",4926

But I'm 18 years old, still in high school, and have editing equipment and I could of made a whole lot better film than this. Honestly, what is this? It's downright horrible. You see Jackie Chan in Young Master and then Twin Dragons, and that's it! Than a little bit of Bruce Lee in about 2 or maybe 3 films and that's it! It never even shows them off, you only see Jackie do one descent stunt when he runs over the car and that's it, where as a real film on this subject would show just about all his big stunts. And everyone knows Enter the Dragon is the place where to find some of Bruce Lee's best work, and you don't see anything from it. WHAT IS THIS?",49965

0,about the author more than the music,"Ratliff just can't help inserting himself at every turn in this book.

It's not my mood; it's not one of the things that satisfies my thrill seeking."" Well, gee, thanks for sharing sharing; but save it for your diary.

A lot of the info is simply stories and anecdotes and it is very light on data, but I guess that is what you get when you buy a book from a journalist from the New Yorker instead of an academic who has deep data and knowledge.

The mesh of samples and dance beats and muscular sound seemed revolutionary, and the band inspired a gaggle of lesser known camp followers like EMF and Certain Distant Suns. Sadly, in retrospect the disc sounds cluttered, muddy and tepid. It's hard now to imagine tracks like `Move Mountains' and `Never Enough' causing a stir, but some albums just don't stand the test of time. Liquidizor is just such an album, if you want to here the band at it's best, try Doubt, which is more mainstream but has stood up better. If you want to hear the sample heavy dance sound at it's best, try Hack by Information Society, that's an album that still has punch. This CD just seems to drag.",35660

I read both of these books (The Rising and this one) over the course of a couple of days and I feel like I pushed through all the gore and horrible events depicted in these books only to be completely let down at the end.

My then 2nd T3 worked for a year broke, and my back up (the repaired first T3) lasted 2 1/2 months. This is a great dryer while it works, but at 200 a pop, I expect it to last longer than a year, and I only dry my hair 2-3 times a week for 15 minutes. So, unfortunately I would say look elsewhere until they fix it. My former stylists owns a salon, they only use T3s however, she is constantly sending 3-4 of them back at a time to be replaced.

Worst of all, though, the gathering itself just doesn't have the sense of drama you'd expect it to. There doesn't seem to be much of a sense of urgency to any of the characters, and that makes the film itself seem kind of slow.I was also disappointed by the film quality, as I think other reviewers have observed . . . haven't really looked at the other DVD extras, but I don't see them overcoming the general disappointment I had in the movie itself.",28931

1,Great Product!!,The product is so convenient and easy-to-use that I find myself using it more often than I expected. An added bonus is that the battery charger is interchangeable with other B&D; products.Black & Decker NS118 18-Volt Cordless Electric Broom Hard Surface Sweeper,14591
1,Great liner!,"I bought a new home and needed bulk liner material. The product was the only reasonable choice on the market but with the ribbed design works better than other liners found in stores. I wish it came in a 18"" width and greater lengths as well.",307
0,"noisy, noisy, noisy","the thermostat does turn the unit on and off, but it is so noisy I can't stand it. Can't hear the TV over the noise. I don't think it would have taken much to put a quieter fan in there.",23097
1,Best bottles,These are the best bottles ever. Tried 7 bottles before I tried these. Didn't think my son was ever going to latch on a bottle. These were a life saver!,16972
1,Good Movie,Good Movie! It's very interesting to see how Batman and Superman encounter each other and have a little brawl in the beginning of their encounter. My only complain is that I wish they would have made it a bit longer. Other than that it's not a bad dvd!,2823
0,Laughable effort! No Stars! (but can't put that in),"This is pitiful - it was pitiful on Broadway, and deservedly didn't last long. It ""updated"" the 70's move, pretty bad on it's own, to a modern setting. Best advice...pay no attention to the early movie and even less to this one. Buy the original cast CD, sit back and listen to a great musical work and a believable (accurate? I don't know) retelling of the last days of Christ.",2317
1,Calphalon potholders,"As with many things that I get tired of because of their mediocrity, I decided to come to Amazon to see if there were better potholders than the cheap, thin ones we have used for years. A little research, a couple days of waiting for them to arrive and voila! I'll probably never buy another kind of potholder in my life! I got two of these and I couldn't be more pleased. The silicone is sticky (maybe grippy would be a better word), they look great and they are very heat resistant. The other day I was forced to hold a super hot pan for well over a minute and although my hands did get warm, they were nowhere near being so hot that I couldn't have kept holding it. Just a few days before we received these I was racing to put down a casserole that I had been holding for about five seconds with our regular holders. Not anymore. Great product!",4551
0,Tired of the Come On,"As a single ""Soul Kiss"" has a great jazzy, breezy feel to it. The rest of this album is full of cheap and sleazy stuff. If you want to hear Olivia do what she's best at, pick up ""Back With A Heart"" instead.",43443
1,Nostalgic!,It is in perfect condition. I was able to sing along with all those songs that I remember from my childhood! Received it within a few days or ordering. Would work with this seller again!,29546
1,FABULOUS!!!!! WORTH THE WAIT!,"It's been over 4 years since Ace of Base released their last full length album of new material.... and it's been an extremely long 4 years! They FINALLY return to show the world that they are stronger and better than ever. While the songs may not be as deep as the tracks on ""The Bridge"" they definitely show a new side of themselves and continue to impress me. It's the best pop album i've heard in a very long time, straight up, fun, catchy, tunes. Ace of Base fans will not be disapointed and those of you looking for a great pop album thats not fake or fabricated should definitely check out this talented and dedicated group and their latest release! DA CAPO! ACE OF BASE IS BACK BABY!!!!!(i really hope this gets released in the USA... it's a lot better than the 'premade pop' we get)",402
1,An eye-opening and humorous third-world adventure,"This book combines the best of Douglas Adams' humor with the reality of seriously threatened species that are sparsely inhabiting our planet. My favorite creature was the defiant kakapo, whose determination is seemingly intended for the bird not to survive, with its finicky eating and mating habits. Adams and Carwardine do a splendid job describing the countries they visit as well as the animals. Anyone who has traveled to third-world countries will recognize the inconsistent border guards and troubled flight schedules, currency problems and badly-behaving tourists. As the troupe travels around the world, the reader is treated to a first hand glance of the experience as well an in-depth description of the endangered species and their particular habits.",42262
1,Top five Shaw brother Kung Fu bloodbath,"You may not wanna watch this one with your little brother. Sooo many people die in this movie it's insane. Cool story, plenty of action, original Venoms, need I say more? Sholin gets revenge on Wu Tang, Wu Tang strikes back, back and forth until Wu Tang viscously crosses the line. You have got to see it.",30962
0,Boooo Hisssss,"What a disappointment!!!!! Christmas was ruined, no cookies!! It didn't work, right out of the box. It's ""sensor"" over loaded itself on cooked potatoes. In otherwords it did not mix. I have to question whether they even opened the box to fix it in the first place. I am sceptical whether I will buy a KitchenAid in the future, reconditioned or otherwise.",10875
1,Driveway Patrol Motion Detectors,"I bought two of these from Amazon to use at the front door and at one of the back doors. My intention was to provide advanced warning at night if someone approached the house. We have a full alarm system but the internal motion detectors are purposely turned when we are in the house and these units were intended to augment that protection.Both motion detectors work well and ring in on both receivers. The volume is such that only one receiver is necessary. During the day, I do get some false alarms from the back unit due to where I have it located. Occasionally I have to turn off the receiver to keep the number of false alarms to a minimum.My units are not directly susceptible to the elements. They are under cover.Good, solid product.",9497
0,Brutal? BRUTAL?,"No, 12 this is not brutal. this is terrible. it's corporate garbage as bad as backstreet or nsync. brutal is real metal or hardcore, this is just mindless three chord trash capitalizing on the rap-rock fad. durst's lyrics are hilariously bad, and how anyone could take him seriously are beyond me. it speaks very highly of my generation when the number one song in the country has a chorus of ""stick it up your YEAH."" sucks to the bizkit, buy some real music instead.",39462
0,No originality,"Alright, if you happen to think that Shonen Knife were great then you'd probably like this. This is a duo of girls that were ""manufactured"" much like ""The Monkees"" or ""The Archies."" These two girls play no instruments, do not write their lyrics and, here in japan are considered the same thing as something along the lines of Backstreet Boys. I happen to disagree with this common conception that Japanese hold about these two girls,...At least Backstreet Boys can dance. This is a big money Japanese crappy label project and you'll buy this record and regret it in 24 months,....When you won't even be able to give 'em away....It's already happened here in Japan. They're on the way down and.....the bottom of the can is the limit.",30966
1,Good Resorce book for Victorian stencil designs,This book has many beautiful stencil designs and is a good resource book for the professional stenciler. The designs are all copy right free. The only complaint I have is that some of the designs are printed very small and it can be quite difficult to enlarge it to the right size. Also some of the designs can be a little difficult for a beginner to cut themselves.This book is more suited for a professional or someone very experience in cutting their own stencils.,27672
0,Frustrated,"Agree with other reviewers. Got ""no OP' message, the company sent me another one, after a while it did the same. Do not buy!!",178
1,What a good writer!,"The tales in this book are from the Bukowski's greatests creations. They seem to be easily written, but with a quality (and rythm) that only a master could put on it. Definitely, one of the bests writers in English language in the XX century.",27369
1,Video iPod - Sweeeet!,"This little gem is fantastic, it has performed flawlessly since I got it. Battery life if my one and only complaint, you don't get anywhere near the life that Apple claims. I bought a Griffin TuneJuice to solve that problem. I'm not crazy about how iTunes updates content on the iPod, but I've learned to work around that. It's hard to compare this device to anything else on the market because it has few if any competitors, but the only thing that would make it better would be the ability to buy or download DVD movies onto the iPod. I purchased the Cucusoft DVD to iPod converter software, and it works very well. I now have about 6 movies and several SNL classic skits and some Seinfeld episodes on the iPod. I'm not sure how Apple is going to top this device.",14586
1,"If you plant rice, rice will grow, if you plant fear, fear will grow."",","It was never the fight scenes that made me like this show, it was the attitude and philosophy of the leading character. Whilst most seventies TV and movies were all about violence and revenge this show shone like a beacon of hope, forgiveness and restraint. It certainly was ahead of it's time in those aspects.It influenced me so much I even went to Aikido classes for a few years with my friends, (I know it was Kung Fu but there was none in my area.)A TV show with a worthy message is more rare then hen's teeth, I watched it avidly during it's original run and became addicted to it's hopeful message, if you haven't seen it give it a try, I think you will too.Now snatch the stones, walk the rice paper and go in peace grasshopper.",35369
1,I like this book,I like this book because I am seriously into Egyptian theories. I couldn't give it a five star though because it is difficult reading and I believe only for the very serious reader. I equate it to our Christian Bible. Some thing to be read in small bites and continually to fully absorb the information. I will continue to read it throughout my life.,41439
0,Bad customer service,"When I received the earrings, I loved them. Wore them once and kept falling off. Wrote to customer service about the problem - that one earring would not shut properly and never received a reply. I would not order from this company again due to their customer service.",27877
0,Easy-to-satisfy crowd,"As a former Asia fan (until John Wetton left the group), I bought Chasing The Dragon not only to listen to the well-known Asia hits live but also to get to know some of John Wetton's pre-Asia band stuff and post-Asia solo stuff. This album is a good way of doing so.Only... it seems there is not much to his other stuff. Asia can't do without Wetton, and Wetton doesn't seem to do without Asia. The Asia songs on this album miss the power and the rock soul of the original versions.So unless you like quiet live pop - Wetton IS a good singer - buy one of the first three Asia albums instead.",30805
1,My sister loves it,I bought this product for my sister last Christmas as she is an avid reader. She loves it. It's portable and very convenient. The only problem the batteries ran out quickly and there is no backlight. She solved the battery problem by putting lithium batteries in it and after 3 weeks they are still at full power. She said eventually it will replace all her paperback books.,10832
0,What a joke!,"Ceo : Building a $400 Million Company from the Ground Up is a joke. A mediocre attempt at a business advice/autobiography. You could get better advice from a fortune cookie. And to answer the previous reader's question; ""Where is ASK today?"" It's bankrupt.",25491
1,I took two classes taught by Dr. Pringle,"Dr. Pringle is a man of great integrity with a vast amount of knowledge on this topic. This book will prove essential to anyone interested in understanding Russian political history. I took both an upper-level history course on the Cold War and a political science course on US national intelligence at the University of Kentucky with Dr. Pringle, and I can truly say that these were two of the best classes I have ever taken. Do yourself a favor and get this book!",7382
0,Worst Camera I've ever owned,This camera takes blurry pictures straight out of the box. One mistake I made was to not take my own SD card to the camera shop and look at the output. I thought the blurry image I was seeing at the camera store was because of the low resolution screen but it really is the camera. I've missed too many pictures of my kids and am in the process of buying a new camera a short 2 months after buying this.Casio support was responsive and tried to help but nothing appears to work. And point and shoot is definately not an option. I thought it would be nice to take quick pictures of the kids but none of them are worth keeping. I've taken over 200 pictures and I will not print any of them.,13303
1,Pure Emotion,"THird Eye Blind does it again with their third album, Out of the Vein. With each new album, THird Eye Blind seems to more and more exactly portray their emotions, and in addition, the emotions of their listeners. Before this album came out, I knew of five of the songs. I had heard Blinded, Faster, Crystal Baller, and Wake for Young SOUls, and Forget Myself. I immediately fell in love with those five songs, and after i heard the rest of the album, the same affect took hold on me. Out of the Vein is pure genius, and the result of years of work. To miss out on this album with its lyrical beauty and musical complexity would be missing out on a turning point in musical history. Buy Out of the Vein today!",7008

1,A classic,"I'm giving this title 4 stars, because it's a classic.This is a big step up from Dragon Warrior 10 years ago. However, I'm convinced it would bore most young gamers of today. Unlike DW3 and DW4 is not extremely hard to find. Features the use of a ship, new allies that you form, and multiple enemies in battle. As well as a cool teleport system, multiple save locations and a world 4x the size of Dragon Warrior.",20081

1,"King Floyd, A True Pioneer","King Floyd is truly a pioneer of today's R&B and is also a legend. I had the pleasure of playing in King Floyd's band as Keyboardist and I can truly say that King was a legend and one of the greatest writers of the 1970s era. If you are a fan of 'Old School' R&B music, I'm sure you will not be disappointed and can really appreciate this CD",16755

0,Not worth buying,"This is a depressing release, charaterised by insecure intonation and delivery, which inhibits the artist's interpretative range. The plodding conducting does not help matters. For some time, I have wondered whether Angela Gheorghiu was going to meet her earlier promise.",1789
1,P. M. Griffin's Star Commandos,"I thoroughly enjoyed this, the tenth volume of Ms. Griffin's Star Commandos series. Once again, her gift of storytelling shines in her description of her characters, fast-paced action, and just enough background to enhance the tale. From the first paragraph, a reader feels as if he or she is there, watching the events as they occur, sharing the risks and the triumphs of the Star Commando team as they complete their mission. I could not lay the book aside until the last page had been read. I found the Watchdogs of Space to be a very pleasant and entertaining read; one that I recommend highly to any reader of science fiction.",17493
0,mediocre,"I love Cajun music and many of the artists on here (Patty Griffin, Maria McKee and others). Still, I think this disc is rather a yawn. It's nearly all in French and most of the singers don't ""do"" French well. The music is not nearly as varied as Cajun music can be and tends to all run together. I have sold mine back.",25933
1,A full-cast audiobook presentation starring Academy Award nominees Paul Giamatti and David Strathairn,"An amazing dramatization of the famous Lincoln-Douglas debates, Norman Corwin's The Rivalry is a full-cast audiobook presentation starring Academy Award nominees Paul Giamatti and David Strathairn. The passionate exchange of words between up-and-coming legislator Abraham Lincoln and incumbent Senator Stephen A. Douglas over critical issues - especially the hot-button matters of slavery and the American concept of freedom. A profoundly moving experience, offering a window into the historical clash of words that would come to foreshadow the infinitely more devastating clash of the American Civil War. 2 CDs, 104 minutes.",10143

0,"hollywood flaccid, however funny at times","This is a pretty lame comedy, not much more than formula junk, though there is some good writing and the actors are truly fine. Alas, nothing new emerges, and the thought that the Nicolson character cd learn and grow - not only at his age but given his character - is ridiculous and ultimately ruins the impact of the film. It is too bad, because Keaton and Nicolson are such graet actors that they cd have done something original, even pathbreaking. Instead, it is just less rather than more.",35440

1,Best cough syrup ever,"I've used a lot of different natural cough medicines over the years and they all help, but I still cough to some degree after I've used them. I don't know if it was a fluke or not, but the two times I took this stuff I coughed once right after I took it and that was it for about 8 hours. I tried a different cough syrup in between and it helped, but still coughed. I'm now buying the biggest bottle to keep on hand. I'm very impressed!",28690
0,Good show sabotaged by awful filmmaking.,"Just wanted to jump into the mix and say that this show was butchered by incomprehensible editing. I put this on for the first time at a party and everybody was put-off by the ultra fast cutting and weird choices of shots and angles. They cut away from Sheryl when she's singing and playing so many times that it just makes you wonder what' up!? Maybe she's so humble she wants her band members to get equal time. I don't need to see a two second cut-away to the drummers foot while she's singing All I wanna Do. The music sounded great-but C'mon, C'mon. We want to see Sheryl Crow!",24495
0,I am happy to stand corrected but...,"...I am a great Doreen Virtue fan on the whole, but I simply can't help thinking that she is simply regurgitating all the information and thoughts and insights we have heard before, in this pack. For me it is a case of re-packaging what has already been said a million times. The pictures are sweet enough, and very colourful, but I would stick to some of her other cards like the Archangel cards...I feel Doreen has simply thought"" Hmmm what mystical icon can I put on this new set to re-sell as something new "". I am cynical, but can't help thinking she is laughing all the way up her beautifully tailored sleeve as she checks her bank account.",38799

He got a small one that didn't transform, and he wasn't happy until he got the real deal, thanks to Amazon. com.",32334
0,A book for the inexperienced fantasy reader,"Not that anyone will ever find this review in the amazingly long list of reviews, but I feel I must write it anyway. This book is what I consider as junior fantasy. It ranks on par with David Eddings and all of the Dragonlance books. Decent story, decent writing, but the depth just isn't there. There is very little character development, the plot is more or less predictable, and there's little original about the themes. One of my rules of thumb is that if I ever hear an adult raving about this book or any of Eddings' or Weiss/Hickman's works, I can be pretty sure that they really aren't that experienced in the world of fantasy fiction. 1000+ cheering reviews for this book shouldn't fool anyone but junior high kids.",30418
1,Nice radio,"I saw other reviews about the radio losing signal, I purchased the radio anyway. I only purchased it to use on my motorcycle. I only used it a couple of times only because I could not hear it very good with the outside noise but never had a problem with signal loss. I guess it could depend on your area or statioin.",33861
1,Great product!,"With my first child we had a Diaper Genie, and that lasted pretty well, but eventually broke after about 18 months of use...then we bought the Diaper Dekor...and wow, it's so much better! I love the fact that we won't have to toss it out once we're done with the diaper stage, and it holds so many more dirty diapers than the DG. Plus, if you can't get to the store to buy the refills, just use a regular garbage bag (with odour shield!) and they work great too! So much cheaper to use than the DG, and much more sanitary...no shoving the diaper in and twisting, just use your foot pedal to lift the lid and then drop the diaper through the top. It's more expensive to buy than the DG, but well worth the extra cost, and in the long run you save money by not having to change the refills so often.",6642
0,"Commercial Rap, Or Hip Hop?","Honestly, after hearing 'Death Is Certain', this album doesn't even come close to how good that album was. There was more commercial, or should i say ""bubble gum"" rap in this album than any other he has made. It seems as if over the years, Royce has commercialized his music in a way, as to make it revolve around money, drugs, and bi*ches more than anything else. This is just my opinion. I only found a few songs on this album worth listening to...Royce should get his act together and go back to making real Hip Hop!!Edit",42431
1,Coming back for more,"I just finished reading 'A Harvest of Bones' and thoroughly enjoyed it. My immediate reaction was to find out what other books the author has written around the characters. It's a good storyline - one that will keep you coming back to finish. You want to find out what happens next - How will Murray handle her new love? What's going on with the kids? Are Joe and Em going to get married? Is Joe going to become more involved in the paranormal? What about the rest of Em's friends? It's a cozy, fun read. Find out for yourself to see if you agree.",46557

1,Robert Wagner&It takes a thief,"It takes a thief was one the best tv shows to come along to tv and Robert Wagner who played the character Alexander Mundy played him well,it was first class tv show and should be released on dvd and if hollywood needs to take another tv show and turn it into a movie,it should be,it takes a thief.",1073
0,disappointed,"I am an avid reader of ancient Egyptian mysteries, and have read every one that I could find, including Peters, Haney and Robinson, whose works I consider to be very entertaining. It was with great expectations that I read The Mask of Ra--and I was quite disappointed. Mr. Doherty takes too many liberties with historical facts. I guess I should have been fairly warned by the character's names--very UN-Egyptian!Besides having his own way with history, Mr. Doherty is, in my opinion, a poor author. His descriptive powers lack any emotion, and his descriptions of his characters lacks any verve.The only thing this novel has in merit is to warn me against reading any further works from Doherty.",43548
1,Best Tweezers ever!,"I never really thought much one way or the other about tweezers, but after hearing good things about Tweezerman, I thought I'd splurge. They work so well!

1,Perfect gentlemen's/walking around knife,"I have collected hundreds of knives, mainly fixed-blade exotics, and I have carried dozens of pocket knives over the decades. I love this knife and I'm on my third one, as I seem to lose it every two or three years. Discreet, gorgeous, sharp, functional, portable and impeccably finished. And very reasonably priced. I use it mainly for opening packaging and a bit of food cutting and it always draws comments due to its high cool factor.",18482
1,Radical ideas!,"Kent Beck explores some interesting ways of improving the software development cycle. If you are not interested in some big changes, then this book is not for you.One of the more intersting concepts that Kent is pushing is this book is the concept of programming in pairs. This means that whenever code is written that you have 2 people working on the same computer to write code. My first thought was that this would slow down the process, but Kent explains that it does not actually slow down the process, and it actually speeds things up.This book contains many radical ideas that would really change the development process. For instance Kent explains that its better to meet the requirements as they exist at the end of the project, rather than the requirements that have been set at the begining of the project.In a day time when progress is measured in ""internet time"" and requirements are constantly changing, Extreme Programming provides some usefull ideas.",7246

1,Outlaw Mountain,"An elderly woman is found dead in the middle of a stand of cholla cactus. Sheriff Joanna Brady is called into the case and immediately begins investigating those who were close to the dead woman, including a much younger, somewhat mysterious boyfriend. Also among the suspects are a group of young teenagers who take the woman's car on a joyride across the Mexican border. The subplots in this book are a little more complex than in the previous books in this series and include a mentally challenged man who is found wandering aimlessly, a man in a witness protection program, and a deepening romance for Joanna. Sprinkled throughout the book are the usual problems with Joanna's overbearing mother, and her feisty young daughter. This is a good series to read in sequence, so if you haven't read ""Desert Heat"" you might want to start there.",41574
0,Horrible Book,"Being a fan of The Dave Matthews Band, I purchased this book hoping to find out more insight to the backgound about the band. I was surprised to find many inaccuracies. One would think that they would check the facts before pulishing it. If you want accurate information of the Dave Matthews Band than I would suggest you read ""Step Into the Light"".",11781

1,Better than Supernatural or Abraxas,"There are so many other reviews here that say exactly what I want to say about this music so I will not add much. I think it is much better than Santana's most popular and excellent albums, ""Supernatural"" and ""Abraxas"". There are no hit songs here, just the original Santana band hitting their musical peak in an inspired work of intense power and beauty. My favorite tracks are ""Stone Flower"" (#8) and ""La Fuente Del Ritmo (#9), both of strong Brasilian flavor, and ""Waves Within"" (#2) - I dare you to figure out the meter this one is in. I don't care much for Track #5 and 6, but everything else is close to perfection.",7933
0,Knock Off Gillette Blades,"The price is compelling, but not if I knew the blades I was buying were knock off Gillette Razorblades. They look exactly like the real thing, but you'll easily distinguish they are not the real thing once you shave with them. I bought the same Gillette blades from a CVS so I could do a sanity check to see if I was wrong, and I was not wrong. This place sells knock off Razorblades.",49450
1,Very Catchy,"Although way overplayed in Mexico like so many pop songs, ""Me Muero"" really caught my attention when I saw the music video with masked Mexican wrestlers. I thought it was crazy to have something like that in the video for a love song, but it really makes sense when you think about how she's saying the world is wrong (about the masked wrestler?).Since buying the CD, all the songs, especially ""Tu Peor Error,"" have really been growing on me. The other songs also add some great lyrics to think about such as the line in ""Ahora Que Te Vas"" where she says she will dream in black and white if he leaves or how he's left her no option but to tear off her skin and bear the pain in ""Para No Decirte Adios."" I also really liked ""Que Fui Para Ti"" because it showcases Natalia's amazing voice so well. Natalia....At first, the songs later in the disc started to all sound the same, but now I don't think there is a single weak song on the album.",29097

By the time we notified Kitchenaid our warantee was up. We were told it was not an error with the unit, that we were using it wrong!(???) I guess we were washing it too thoroughly. We were told we could buy another cup for $99. After spending $200 on the unit it felt it was lousy customer service. I gave it two stars because it works properly if you can ignore the yuck factor. I uploaded pictures for everyone to see.",38220
1,Great Game - Very Tricky,"SSX3 was the game I looked forward to playing the most since SSX Tricky. As expected the graphics got much better, the game got much bigger and the sound track went to unbelievable.My only quirk with this game - and it isn't really a quirk for some - is that it is VERY difficult. Unlike SSX Tricky, to complete the game properly, it will take about 2 months off your life, and will have you pulling your hair out as you just miss that point score of 1 million. In its complexity though, it breeds some awesome challenges, that when overcome makes you feel like a pornstar king!I recommend this game for the guys that wished SSX Tricky was a lot longer and whole lot Trickier.",33635

Have we gone back to the dark ages here?? And let's look at how many pages of foods you are supposed to eliminate from your diet in order to stop the migraines. I have already been tested for all kinds of food allergies, we know that's not why I get the migraines. And if you think for one minute I am going to follow this person's advice and just ""push through the pain,"" you are absolutely nuts!!

It was so slow and fake. It's like, ""This really didn't happen!"" So I stopped not even 1/10 of the way through it and gave up on it. It REALLY didn't interest me. I tried to give it a chance, but it was so horrible I couldn't. Nothing personal, Kevin Henkes! Oh, and by the way, this is just MY opinion!

0,Failed after 4 months,"I purchased this through Amazon of Oct 1, 2012. The unit failed on Jan 28, 2013. It has operated more or less continuously since I received it. In reading other websites it appears that Netgear knows there is a problem but wants users to turn it off ""when not in use"". That is an impractical idea since the switch is in use continuously. Attempting to reach Netgear customer service has proved a nightmare. If you want to talk to someone they apparently want money. I will try once more today and give an update.UPDATE I was able to get an RMA for the failed switch with no difficulty whatsoever. I called the 888-NETGEAR number and was connected after a minute or two fumbling around with the user friendly menu. I decided not to pay the premium price for return shipping because I can limp along without the switch for a week or two. I will eventually consider revising my rating, but not just yet.",13731

1,"The COMPLETE Collection ... MINUS ONE, but still a great set","This four-disc set contains all the episodes from the entire run of ""Yes Minister"" -- with one GLARING exception: the one-hour Christmas Special, ""Party Games"", where Hacker becomes PM. (MAYBE that episode will be included in the Box Set of ""Yes Prime Minister"" due Aug. 26; still it would've been better on THIS one, if only for ""continuity"")Other than that, this is a GREAT box set! The DVD extras are NOT ""plentiful"" but what's there IS enjoyable. I liked the ""Brief History of 'Yes Minister',"" where it is revealed that the ""Communications Roon / Booze Room"" was based on an ACTUAL UK mission to the Middle East! Although the creator did not reveal specifics, he said that MANY of the story ideas were based on ""leaks"" from real senior officials in Whitehall!A must-buy!",36545

Harry is getting older in this book and I was a bit taken aback at first with some of his anger and frustration - as well as the bickering between Ron and Herminone as well. But, when I thought about it, they're teens now, and who wouldn't fight at that age, especially about secrets and the situations they end up in. Great book.",13233

1,"Excellent Collection of ""Rebel"" Memorabilia","Movie buffs of all ages will treasure this 2 disc edition of the great classic and lament James Dean's unrecognized potential as a director, screenwriter and all the roles he never had the chance to play. Most of the special features (with the exception of a dismal commentary track with some hokey trivia) really enhance the fun of this collection...these include wardrobe tests, deleted scenes and ""behind the scenes"" segments which give great insight into the mechanics of film production and the personalities of the players. Peter Lawford's 1974 ""James Dean Remembered"" proves to be one of the worst ""chat shows"" in television history, but still has retrospective entertainment value.Although certainly dated, REBEL still holds up with thematic resonance for contemporary audiences. Dean is breathtaking. Mineo is heartbreaking. A must have for your DVD library!",44410
0,Poor Design Vents Steam Towards Handle,"I'm returning this waffle iron. First, I was surprised that the slider button was plastic. Seems very cheap. If i use a bit of pan spray I can make waffles that do not stick, so that's ok. The highest setting 5, was not enough to make a golden brown and crispy waffle, so I give it about 1 minute extra each time.But, the worst part is the design.The steam is funneled to the front of the waffle iron - where the handle for the top lid is. I end up using a hot pad or mitt each time just to open the lid. There is NO WAY I could let my 13 year old - who loves to cook - use this waffle iron due to the poor design.The waffles are fine.And, if you are fine with using a mitt each time, go for it.But, I'll be searching for a model that vents the steam away from the user.And, I'll probably look for a more sturdy model - perhaps cast iron instead of plastic on the inside.This one is fine for the money, if you are ok with the design.",37341

Check it out for yourself:[...]Mapes has never disclosed this information in interviews or books. She had a professional duty to disclose this fact, and it undoubtedly contributed to her discharge from CBS. Her subsequent writings reveal her to be a highly partisan operative interested more in propaganda that helps her cause than in disclosing simple fact.People familiar with Ms. Mapes' questionable record will not be surprised by any of this, but kool-aid drinkers who suffer from Bush Derangement Syndrome will find deliciou swilling here.",32966

1,Deserves more praise than it's usually given,"This is not a Hitchcock film I had heard much about before it came on T.V. but I found it surprisingly good. There are moments of classic Hitchcockian suspense, (Marnie's shoe falls from her pocket but does not disturb the deaf janitor), and also a well executed character study. The troubled Marnie is well played by Tippi Hedren, one of the more under-appreciated actresses of her generation, while Sean Connery and Diane Baker are excellent in support as Marnie's concerned employer and husband, and the woman in love with him.I found the movie lost some of its well built of tension towards the end, as everyone got a little screechy and weepy, but overall it was an excellent, unexpected treasure.",38862

1,"Suspenseful, surprising...","This is my first Dean Koontz book, and I must say I was both impressed and disappointed at the same time.The plot is excellent and keeps you at the edge of your comfy recliner - any other chair will probably give you a back ache, because you'll be sitting in it for a while. The plot has an ""evil twin"" element to it, and it also has some quite futuristic but ""could happen"" elements. You've also got the world conspiracy element weaved into it.The thing I was not all that thrilled about is his writing style. I'm sure this is an element, which you either like or dislik, me being in the latter category.However, the story itself really kept me intrigued and guessing to till the very end, and I would definitely recomment this book as a whole. Therefore I'll rate it 4 stars - mainly because of the thrilling story.",17350

It springs leaks freely (it is like a puppy that isn't housebroken), oversprays (even with ordinary latex paint), clogs easily, and requires rigorous flushing between uses. I used the product primarily for one job to repaint large interior areas of rough brick, but it performed poorly and it would be of negative utility for an ordinary size room with drywall that can be painted with a brush and common roller.

It's very thin and much more yellow than pictured, but works fine for a costume.

0,Very weak top third effort,"I had very high hopes for Taking Back Sunday's third album, Louder Now, following the incredible Tell All Your Friends, and the very good Where You Want to Be, however they failed to live up to any expectations. I expected them to deepen their sound much like their peers have done in recent albums. (Midtown's Forget What You Know and Brand New's Deja Entendu) However it seems like their moment on MTV with their last album has ruined them. The opening riff sounds like something left off Pearl Jam's Yield album and the album plummets from there. It sounds strangely top 40 and is predictable at every turn. The best song by far is Error:Operator, which doesnt speak well for the rest of the tracks, though this version is improved over the one released with the Fantastic Four movie.

Filippa can belt high like Monica Naranjo or Patti Labelle, or sing in an operatic way like Sarah Brightman, as well as sing into the highest passages of a soprano leggera into whistle register like Mariah Carey does. Her voice is incredibly flexible.You MUST get this album. Her first album was a fine classy work, her second album a more subdued and soothing sound, but this one is pure exciment.Highlights for me were:Ave Mariah, Vincera per me, Una voce poco fa, Senza Mama, O terra addio, O quante volte, River, All I need.",9424

1,Interesting,This is a very interesting look into Anne Boleyn's life. It goes very in depth into the lives of her and the members of court around her. It also has family trees and old paintings of these people.,6825
0,Very disappointed,"I bought this for my husband who works nights to use on his lunch break and for our children to use on trips. The first night my husband took it with him he got about 10 minutes of viewing time before the screen went blank and it started making funny noises. I promptly exchanged it for another one thinking maybe we had just gotten a lemon. We charged the second one and carried it with us to the hospital for our 4 year old to watch while we were visiting with a family member. Shortly after Simba met up with Pumba and Timone (about 45 minutes for those who aren't familiar with the Lion King) the screen started getting lines across it and locking up. Then the picture went dead and so did the sound. Needless to say, I returned that one without any hassle from the people at Target. I would not buy another one. I hope everyone else has better luck with theirs.",4686
1,Great Idea. Hope I never have to use it,We bought these for friends and family as Christmas presents after seeing an article on TV on how to survive when your car gets submerged in water. The design is small and fits easily on your key ring. I tested the punch on some wood and it is quite powerful and should do the job. Hope I never have to use it?,18897

1,"Very simple, but very useful!","With so many devices having power adapters that take up room at any plug, these are great for getting around that problem.

1,"Great content, terrible execution","Deffinitelly worth a buy, due to the content.Pros:* Deleted scenes documentary, which also tells you why scenes get deleted, and how they are chosen.* ""The making of..."" documentary offers rare insights into the financing of the movie.* Two scenes added into the movie.Cons:* It forces you to install a terrible DVD player, which tends to crash, does not install properly and drastically decreases the movie quality on under-1GHz computers.",37588
0,Not worth the money.....,"The phone cover did not fit really well. The 'button' on the back that hooks to the swivel clip tore off within 3 months of use. For the price, it might be better to pay more and buy one made by Motorola. Would not recommend to anyone we know.",5178

1,Pleased with this version,"I have no problems with the release of this expanded edition, since the original dualdisc wouldn't play in my car cd player, and I have worked in recording studios and think that mp3s decrease the sound of the original mix.The album itself is excellent. Innovative is the word that comes to mind. The acoustic thing has been done, but the use of the horns and organ, mixed with the rousing reworkings of the material, make this album a joy to listen too. It is different from what most artists are doing today. Instead of doing the whole bluegrass thing, which has been done a lot recently, Springsteen mixes the style of each track, incorperating them into ""gutter music."" The rawness of the takes create a ferocity that professional producers cannot achieve with countless takes and overdubs.",24900

0,Falls Short of Its Potential,"Get Over It is a high school flick that could have been so much better than it turned out to be. The cast is obviously talented, and the premise, while scarcely being new, could have worked. Berke has just been dumped by his girlfriend, and as he leaves her house, a hilarious musical number starts, slowly building behind him. After that, I expected great things from this movie, but it dragged on and on .... The Midsummer Night's Dream interludes were about the only thing that kept me awake. The ending -- which showed the performance of the musical remake of Shakespeare's classic -- was brilliant. I found myself wishing that the entire movie had been mostly a musical, and generally I'm not a big musical fan.",48762
0,Mostly mediocre,"Unfortunately this colelction contains, mostly, the short versions of far better novels. We get an excerpt from ""The Forever war"" by Joe Haldeman and the proto-type short story on which Orson Scott Card's ""Ender's Game"" was based. In both cases I think the long versions are much better than this...The PKD story is also good however has been reprinted so many times I must have it 5x by now ^_^The only truly great short here is Walter Jon William's ""Wolf Time"", which is a short story set after his book ""Voice of the Whirlwind"".Overall I was pretty disappointed by this collection. I was hoping it would have some new voices or some older voices I'ld never heard of. Actually the intro mentions a book called ""Men in the Jungle"" by Norman Spinrad. I got that and it was the best thing to come out of this collection for me.",27832

NOTHING BEATS THIS PRODUCT!! It even takes out fried food smells, cigarette smoke, mold, vomit, dirt, blood, sweat stains on clothes, grass stains, oil stains on shirts.I'm on my 4th bottle and use it for everything. I clean first, then use this product. There is no perfume smell or chemical smell to this product.If I could buy gallons of this stuff, by God I would.Don't waste your money on other odor/stain remover products.

1,Tells how body builders really get there size,"This magazine is full of information that a body builder needs to achieve extreme growth. It tells things how they are, for example they talk to body builders that use steroids. Alot of people don't realize all the pro's are on different types of anabolics. They have articles on different steroids and there side effects as well as some training routines. What I like about this magazine is that it has three important factors in making a good mens magazine. One - Women , Two - Bodybuilding, Three -sex. If you like all of these things which most men do then go and buy the magazine.",35135

They're _made_ to be followed, hence the term ""rules."" _Sometimes_ rules _are_ broken, but that is not their innate purpose. The rest of the world knows this. These guys apparently do not. The book is full of cliched, trite stuff like this. What it's not full of is useful technical info.

0,I Must Be Missing Something...,"This book left me very unsatisfied. Most reviewers here hail the book as a ""classic"" and magnificent thriller, and many seem to feel that since Ambler is the ""father of the modern spy thriller"" they are duty-bound to beatify this work. I'll take a modern spy author any day. True, the plot moves steadily forward, the characters are fascinating and well-drawn, and the descriptions of pre-war Central Europe are delicious. But the book seems to move like a train -- you get on, you look out the window at the passing landscape, and then you get off. There was little if any excitement; the suspense was tepid; the plot turned on convenient contrivances aimed only at enabling the author to keep the book moving. The ending, to me, was naive and left me saying: ""Is that all there is???"" Like I say, in the face of all the rave reviews, I must be missing something.",47529

1,A Fascinating Read,"Ambrose has taken yet another history lesson and made it readable. In his account of one of the most ambitious engineering projects in American history, Ambrose takes us through the fascinating tale of the building of the transcontinental railroad and introduces us to the men who made it happen. The politicians, investors, engineers as well as the Chinese and Irish immigrants and defeated Confederate Soilers who labored for the project all come together in Ambrose's skillful hands as he introduces us to the ordinary and common men who worked together to make their dream come true. The narrative flows freely as the portrait of the key players takes us from the beginnings of a vision to the completed project. A very satisfying read!",16562

0,Worst Printer Ever Owned,I was looking to upgrade from an old HP 672. I had heard some good things about Epson printers and the research I did seemed to indicate that this would be a good buy. I guess sometimes no matter how much you do your research you can still get a lemon.I have had nothing but issues with this printer from day one. For one it seems to have to go through some kind of obscure primitive ritual when you hit the print button. It does this crazy back an forth dance for about 15 secs before finally sucumbing to your will and print what you requested. The biggest issue I have with this printer is that if it sits without printing for more than a day the inkjets clog and you have to sit through at least two head cleaning sessions to get the thing to print clearly. Unless of course you don't mind blank lines through your text.,40733

It definitely eliminates a lot of fussing. My baby is 5 months old now and faces outward and loves it. I can go outside and play with my older two children and wear the baby in the carrier and have my hands free for throwing balls or pushing swings. It also makes grocery shopping a breeze.

0,Mediocre book on labs -- not a good training reference.,"This book contains general, basic information on laborador retrievers.

0,A Good Plot Gone Bad,"The Flanders Panel has an intriguing premise but I found it hard to read. The dialouge between the characters is unrealistic. Every comment by each character seems to be either part of some philosophical debate, usually pretentious or downright silly, or contains a reference to some historical or literary figure. It sounds like the characters are a bunch of professors, each trying to sound more intelligent than the other. Also, the comparisons of chess to life drone on endlessly. If you can get through the dialouge, the plot can be compelling at times. I found the ending, however, contrived and disappointing. Overall, I would not recommend this book.",49870

The conflict that occurs when he meet and falls in love with a young lady he meets during a voyage adds to the suspense of the conflict between Peabody and his British counterpart.

The head band started its ""decay"" within a year or two of usage, though the cushion just started to break recently.

0,What's love got to do with it?,That's how I felt about this book. There was no love involved between any of the characters. It was more of an obsession and lust than the need to love and be loved.

1,Von Arnim's witty portrayal of fin-de-siecle married life.,"This is one of Von Arnim's very best novels, full of surprising wit and sometimes caustic criticism of the lonely existence of an intelligent British woman in a turn-of-the-century aristocratic German household. In particular, the childbirth scenes are chilling, and reminiscent of Charlotte Perkins Gilman's The Yellow Wallpaper, though Von Arnim typically treats the topic with more humor. The ending is as brilliant as those of her contemporary Edith Wharton.",11319
1,"Great ""nuts and bolts"" game","Like its companion ""Baseball Mogul,"" Football Mogul is a game based in strategy and team-building rather than the rock 'em, sock 'em action of most games.You must not only keep your team playing well on the field, but must also make strategic business decisions that influence the team - do you sign the big-time free agent for megabucks and take a financial loss, or do you pray to land him via the draft? Do you even keep your draft picks, or trade them away for the established star? Do you raise ticket prices (and potentially alienate your fan base)? And what do you spend to keep your players healthy and on the gridiron? All these questions - and others - play a large role in the game.Football Mogul is a fabulous game if you were a fan of text-based simulations, and I'd recommend it. But if you're looking for a Madden-like experience, this one's not for you.",17046
1,Nice alternative for bathing newborns,"I used this product to clean my newborn while she still had her umbilical cord and couldn't take a regular bath.

0,TOO complicated!...I think even an exercise buff will struggle!,"This method is WAY too complicated. Unless you are already fit and have had dance classes all your life (I quit dance @ age 11 and have always loved to dance by the way) then this will be a REAL challenge just to try to learn. I tried and tried and I couldn't compute how to do any of the moves. My BF's daughter couldn't either so I don't feel too bad because she is a little younger and is a dancer. SO!...as much as I wanted to love this I didn't. I would be interested in hiring a personal trainer who knows the Tracy Anderson Method though if there was such a thing in my area (which there isn't!). I think even someone who is an exercise buff would have problems getting these combinations.

Liv Tyler is insufferable as Tatyana, completely out of her realm in capturing the nuances of this character. Fiennes is a good actor but is too old to play Onegin, who was barely past 20 and had an affected sense of disattachment with society as a prvileged young son of Russian society would.The movie trudges along trying to fill in the scenes with an insipid dialog that hardly does the poetic novel justice. The verse novel was written mostly in the third person with very little dialog, which would force any film maker into constructing much of it, but here we see a lovely novel reduced to the level of soap opera.

I would also like to see more bristle on the brush.I'm still undecided on whether to keep the Dyson or the Eureka.

It provides insight (albeit limited) into the underlying causes for different personality types but is soooo generic that it really has no real world applicability. With the time it takes you to read this book, you could spend with people and pick up on more subtleties and personality quirks that have some practical merit.

The code seemed to be ported from another language instead of being written with C# in mind (for example the use of a getName() method instead of using a Name property). If your looking for a tutorial on design patterns check out Robert Martin's latest book on Agile Software Development. It doesn't use C#, but it covers the classic GOF design patterns (plus a few others), explores XP programming and (in my opinion most importantly) covers principles fundamental to object oriented programming and design.",28742

0,missing format,"I loved ""Space Chimp"", but I will not be buying the sequel. The reason is there is no full screen. ""Space Chimp"" was widescreen and full screen to accomodate everyone, but ""Space Chimps 2"" has only widescreen. If it had full screen too then I would have bought it, if for no other reason then because I loved the first one so much.",37960
1,Dark of the Moon DVD,Great value for money. I purchased this DVD for my son as he loves Transformers. Received the DVD before the estimated date and before it was due to be released in Australia.We were only interested in the movie(extras etc not a big deal for my son) so it was a very good buy.Quality of movie was good too.,352
1,they saved the world from fascism,Even though I'm only 32 I absolutely love anything about world war two.Thsi is one of the best i've ever seen along with saving private ryan.After watching this and getting attached to certain characters who i'm sure remind us of people we have once met or known in our life.These guys did truly save the world from evil aggression and dictatorship.If you don't appreciate your freedom after watching this then you might want to go to the doctor and see if you have a heart.A very gripping masterpiece of these guys and what they did.Anytime it snows or it's very very cold I think of what they did in Bastogne.You will enjoy this.,17392
1,So far so good.....,"Bleach, ""The Rescue"" has been the best season f the series yet. You see Ichigo growth in developing his power and skill as a Soul Reaper. What was disapointing was that they did not show how Ichigo was able to reach ""Bankai"".The scene in which Ichigo takes out four squad lieutenants bare-handle was great. The real surprise is the identity of the ""traitor"" in the Soul Society to learn that a character with whom I thought was a noble personis an accomplice to the conspiracy. All in all ""The Rescue"" did not bog down like spots during Season 2.Great series all in all.",17451
1,Helpful for patients and doctors!,"I heard the author speak recently at a conference and highly recommend this book to patients, their doctors, family and friends.

0,The worst version extant.,"I read Jane Eyre for the first time at the age of 15. Over the years I have eagerly watched every filmed version as they appeared. I previously thought the Orson Welles version was the worst, but I changed my mind once I saw this. The BEST film of Jane Eyre is the Susannah York/George C. Scott version, done in the early 1970's for Hallmark Hall of Fame. Wonderful in every way!! Unfortunately, not available yet on video. AVOID this version from A&E, it is truly terrible. Ciaran Hinds plays Mr. Rochester as a loud, bullying, scenery-chewing lout, and I have seldom seen a shallower, more pallid performance as Jane. Skip this movie and re-read the novel!",39287

I love Misery, my favorite song on the album, unlike punk operah, ""American Idiot,"" it tells short skimpy stories about a couple of people who got some serious problems, complemented by great vocals and a beat you can't help but tap your feet to. Its amazing that there's still a rock band out there that has a care for quality, and Music Theory, you can tell there not in it for the money.",23519
1,Some Fine Coffee Here,"After my twenty dollar fifteen year old Mr.Coffee bit the dust, the wife and I decided that we should look around and put a little money into a stepped-up machine. I was convinced that there should be a way to get the $/cup coffeehouse taste at home. I did the research and landed on Melitta.I love this pot. I've been using it for about a month. Morning coffee has become more of a treat rather than a bitter dose of caffeine. I enjoy an afternoon pot on the weekend. The aroma is wonderful. Using filtered water, I haven't made a bad pot yet.One thing to point out-the grind feature is easily over-ridden and you can use your plain old grocery store ""ground in the can"" brand. It tastes a lot like premium with this gem.The thing was simple and instinctive to use right out of the box. I enjoy not using paper filters. Simply put, Melitta Mill and Brew is a professional quality pot and can make a coffee house style cup of coffee for pennies rather than dollars.",23023
1,Genuine and Inspiring,"Jason & deMarco are just so genuine and inspiring in their relationship with God, and eachother. This album has quickly become one of my favorites. Without question the stand out tracks are This Is Love, and Where the Sun Meets the Sea. Other strong tracks are Just In Time, and Missing You. The rest of the album is very strong vocally. ""Be The Light"" is uplifting and spiritual. The weakest track on the album is probably ""Stormy Weather"" with it's quirky ""you are my sunshine"" lyric. However if you are an Erasure fan you might actually like that one. All in all, the album exceeded my expectations.",42316

0,Ace wheel barrel,"We bought this wheel barrel and by the time it got here in pieces we found it was neither the color we asked for or worth the price. It was sent back by us and we had to pay for shipping and handling inspite of THEM not sending the right wheel barrel! I shouldn't have bought another one there, but since we needed one we did. The wheel was flat on arrival, unfortunately we kept it and by the time I went to use it in the spring, it was flat again. It was too bad for us, and too late. I recommend sending back flat wheels as they are usually defective if they arrive like this. It rusted out the first summer of using it in my small gardens and this was not ""industrial use"" by anyones measurement. I don't feel this was a good value at all. I wouldn't buy it from them again. I didn't like dealing with ACE and I felt their product was over rated and not at all like the picture they used to sell it. I wouldn't buy from them again.",25613
0,Not pleased,"When this item arrived, I was sure there must have been some mistake. It was poorly packaged, having been rolled then bent to fit in the box. As I removed the flimsy material, I first thought that maybe this was a protective backing for the actual liner and that the seller had left out the actual liner! But, no. The flimsy parchment-paper like material IS the liner. The way it was packaged is keeping it from staying flat in the bottom of the oven. I'm still debating whether I will bother to lay heavy books on it to try and straighten it out or fool with trying to return the thing.",1502
1,A Fun Childhood Memory,"Been looking for a copy of this book for ages. Was one of my favorites growing up, and now I can read it with my daughter and son. Join Grover as he explores the museum with strange rooms such as ""The Very Small Things Room,"" or the ""Everything Up In The Sky Room,"" ""The All Vegetables Other Than Carrots Room"" and many many others. Each room shows many common things in the world around us, each labeled for beginner readers. Fun illustrations for small children as well, with many of the Sesame Street Characters hidden in the illustrations. (Sorry, no Elmo here though...it's a little before his time!) A Great memory from my childhood that I now get to share with my kids.",47828

I guess I'll see what collects on the filters and decide. So far it appears to be doing something, at least.",16607
1,Pretty decent for a YA movie,"Watched this last night, I was surprised how much I enjoyed it. Still, it's not a five star movie for me. I thought the characters could have been fleshed out a little more. I am a little confused as to how these games control the population, or why the districts rebelled in the first place, etc, but maybe it spells it out in the book?

1,Good for the working mom,"I just got my first crock pot for x-mas this year and decided to stock up on crock pot cookbooks so I could put it to use while I'm at work. I haven't been disappointed with the recipes in this book so far. I especially like a chicken and wild rice stew that uses brown rice. My kids like the food, so I can't complain. This cookbook is definitely more old-fashioned American cooking rather than packed with dishes from other cultures and regions, but that was really what I wanted. Simple recipes that my kids won't frown at. For those who are looking for a book with recipes that take long enough so they can put in a full day's work and still make something in the crock, this book will satisfy your needs. Most recipes take at least 6 -8 hours on low and can usually be left to cook 1-2 hours extra without harm to the meal.",9269

What I expect from them after having paid a reasonable price is rest for the joint so I can be free of pain from random, inadvertent joint movements. This product, while reasonably priced, is too loosely designed to provide true rest for the joint. Further it is completely plastic in composition meaning that after even a short wearing I have a lot of sweat. I would not buy this product again at any price.",20805
1,My daughter loves her dragon,"This dragon, along with other animals and fairy-tale creatures from Holztiger, are played with a lot in our house. My daughter loves them. Whether lining them up to go in to an imaginary Noah's Ark, ""feeding"" them, having the mama take care of the baby, or (my daughter) making animal noises, these toys stand up to a lot of play. They have been dropped, slept with, batted at by our cat, and still look like we just got them. They are wood, one piece, have a non-toxic stain, and rounded edges. The age range is 3+, but we bought our first Holztiger animals for our daughter when she was 14 months old.",15958
1,This is the Best Racer Yet,"The improvement this game makes on the original is astounding. I totally recommend this game, even if you aren't a big fan of racing games. This one is definately worth it with the new features. It has been made much easier to get boost, making this game even more intense than the original. Slightly glitchy sometimes, but it EASILY makes up for it. If i could, I would give this game 10 stars, for it is the best racing game I have ever played. The crash mode makes this game a HIT when friends are over, and you will love it to death. One shortcoming though, why couldn't they make crash mode over four players when it is turned based?",29122
1,Couldn't pass up such a bargain!,"I have not had the occasion to use one of them yet, but for the price, they seem to be some pretty good insurance if ever needed. I put one in each vehicle, a couple in my hunting pack, and a couple in my camping pack. Threw one in each of my tent bags as well. Inexpensive insurance as far as I'm concerned. I had to spend a night out in the cold once years ago because of a dead battery in a vehicle, and one of these would have been very nice to have had, so these are my insurance for never having to spend another night as miserable as that one.",24648

0,"Great while they lasted,","I purchased a pair of these headphones because I found the pair bundled with the iPod to become very uncomfortable after a while. Initially they were great: extremely comfortable, great sound, and no tangled mess. About two months after my purchase the right earbud suddenly produced no sound. Thinking that I perhaps inadvertently damaged the cord, and because I was very annoyed with the lack of sound balance, I decided to purchase a new pair with a gift card. Yet the same problem has again occured, this time only after a few weeks of use. I am a big user of various electronics and know for certain that I was not misusing this product, so I am convinced this was niether my error, nor simply bad luck. They were great while they lasted, so hopefully I can convince Apple to exchange my bad set for a new one. Buyers Beware!",20378
1,Finish Strong Living Your Faith in the S,"If this book was mandatory reading in our American School System, starting at 7th or 8th grade, but especially for our high school students, the United States would become an Eden on earth.

The karate figures are impressive, as is the entire presentation of the plaque. It looks and feels like a much more expensive item.Her Dad folded her first belt so all the earned stripes showed, and it fit and held perfectly on the velcro and wood bar.I'm about to order a few more bars, so they will be ready when she is.I would highly recommend this product.",4792

1,Emotional Options: A Handbook for Happiness,"Another hit from Mandy Evans. I work as a counselor and have recommended Mandy's books to numerous clients and therapists throughout the years. Her unusual and deep questions cause clients to pause and really look at the beliefs that are holding them back. I've used her suggested questions verbatim in counseling sessions and in groups, and have seen the lights come on when someone discovers that they have been acting from fears and beliefs that they weren't even aware of. The ""miracle,"" of this method is, they don't just gain insight, but that they are able to move forward in new and more fulfilling ways immediately. They discover what Mandy says, that they don't have to wait until all their problems are solved to find relief and even happiness, now.",40946

This band were an enormous success both live and on record and that is too often forgotten.

Camus, best known for his advocacy of existentialism and absurdism and his collection of essays, writes a novel that seeps into one's subconscious and begins to have the reader identify with the character, care about the character, and wonder about the absurdity of the trials and ridiculous nature of humans.Intriguing, engaging, page-turning and (sadly) short, this book is a great weekend read.

It might be a bit big for kids with small hands to use, but otherwise it works well for all hand sizes. It's pretty big at about 11"" tall. The back section is definitely round and big. It displays well as just a stuffed animal too. It can just sit on its big round legs as a stuffed animal. And when ready you can use it as a puppet.",47127

0,"Nice, but of little value --","I've waited three months, using this device locally and on long trips, before writing this review. It is a very nice gadget, but of little help. Locally, it invariably wants me to follow a longer, convoluted route to my destination. On trips to distant locations, it offers no advantage over a printed map. And it is not that the local map is deficient. Once I turn onto the direct route to my destination, the program accepts my decision and reveals all of the streets correctly. But to enter a local address is entirely too difficult and time consuming, without being directed on an indirect, inefficient route to that address.",46208
0,TINA NOVAK is nothing! TINA ARENA is still the best!,"The Roc Project's follow up to the international smash ""Never (Past Tense)"" is definitely not a worthy one. I have heard the track and the song is just your typical chill out-house. Nothing special. This features a singer also named Tina but not as beautiful and as sexy as the previous featured singer on ""Never (Past Tense)"", Tina Arena. Tina Novak has dreadful vocals, it's dull and weak. Ray Roc has even stated that he wanted to work with Tina Arena on the whole collaboration but Tina Arena couldn't commit on the project so he got another Tina, and this Tina Novak is no singer and has no match in comparison to the beauteous Tina Arena.",29425

This book took me a whole week because i could not stand the plot of the book. The plot is so far-fetched that when i finally finished the book, i was so upset that i refuse to read part 2.

0,Pretty bad-but I made it through the whole show,"Not quite bad enough to quit watching, but way too much of the same ol crap we've all seen a million times. On the plus side, they waited long enough to show the creatures to keep me in suspense. There were a couple scary parts where the characters are being stalked...by WHAT? On the negative side, its a low to no budget ripoff of predator, and all the other movies about a small group of friends that get picked off by monsters/slashers. Youngsters might enjoy it as they are still curious and learning about cheapies. Adults, who have been burned repeatedly by flix like this...beware!",9637
0,Stay away,"I have been trying to use ProShow Gold 4.51 for a few months to create a DVD of images and narration from a vacation - no music, no transitions - nothing fancy. It has been an ordeal. The program crashes frequently. You quickly learn to save your work every 30 seconds or so. The first solution from tech support is to uninstall, download another copy and reinstall. I got of tired of hearing that from them. The program crashed less often (but still frequently) if I shut down all startup programs and services not absolutely necessary to run my computer. Because all malware protection had to be shut off, I disconnected from the Internet. The most absolute frustration is the process to burn a DVD. Half of my attempts have failed to complete; the program hangs and the DVD is in the trash. Before you consider purchase, read the support site page ""DVD burning issues."" It will give you an idea how primitive this software is. Zillions of programs can write DVDs, right?",7226

The loony, physics-ignorant hordes of cold-fusion advocates include such worthies as a fellow in Australia who has sold kits of magnets and a ball-bearing which he has claimed will roll around a closed track forever with no visible means of propulsion. Dr. Mallove does not refute such garbage. In this reviewer's opinion he is either delusional or simply a con man on a par with Erich von Daniken or Whitley Strieber.",8205

1,Very Entertaining......Considering I'm a blonde!!!,I thought that the book was very good. It kept my interest from beginning to end. I like how the book had different segments w/differnt characters. I thought each character was very interesting especially Princess Cecelia who thought everybody was out to get her. Her life was just so hard (yeah right) that she had to cause problems for herself.Then there was Winnie & James Dieke also very interesting people. I could go on and on and on about the charcters in this book but you should read it for yourself to get the full effect.Absolutely a thumbs up on this book.,28902
1,Best compilation since the Pulp Fiction soundtrack,"This is one of those rare, skillful compilations that contains not a single clunker. The production is great, and the track list includes several brilliant songs by more obscure artists such as Supreme Beings of Leisure and Bebel Gilberto.

0,Hard to Install,I have installed Sears units and other In-Sink-Erator units and I will not install this model again. It has a very poor connection between the hot water unit and the dispenser. The nylon nut that secures the 1/4 copper tube to the hot water unit does not work. Or should I say it does not work when you are lying on your back under a sink with limited mobility! I called 1-800-558-5700 and asked them what to do and they said to keep tightening it until it stops leaking. The directions however say tighten it finger tight and then turn it with a wrench no more than 3 turns or it may crack the unit. And by the looks of the water jacket it will crack.This is a new design the older models sealed this connection. I guess in the efforts to save 12 cents on a brass fitting quality has gone out the window.,23806

1,Great reference on real lean,This book fills an essential gap between Liker's Toyota Way and the many books on Lean Tools.We intentionally didn't begin our lean transformation in our large service orgnization until we had this book because we saw the folly in trying to implement a bunch of lean tools without the necessary management system.We have visited some Tier 1 Toyota suppliers and Kaizen really means continuous improvement not a succession of week-long projects that many big-time consultants and organizations focus on.This book is our defacto lean transformation handbook and I am glad to see that it has become a standard reference for at least two MBA programs in the area.,20659

0,Letdown,"There are Davenport novels that are pure whodonits and there are Davenport novels where our hero plays cat-and-mouse against a fully developed antagonist. This is neither. More convoluted than clever and more exhausting than exhilarating, Easy Prey is the worst Davenport novel since Night Prey (best in the series are Rules, Eyes, Silent, Certain and Winter). Sanford is a very talented writer, but by the time i reached the left-field climax, I truly couldn't care who did it and who lives or dies -- I just wanted it to end. The reader practically needs one of those connect-the-characters charts that Davenport used to hang on his wall to follow a case, yet your patience and close attention is never rewarded. Chapter upon chapter of pure dialogue detailing investigative procedure punctuated by skimpy action scenes and a hodgepodge of thin, sensationalistic characters.",11688

I bought him the first two seasons to ensure that he'd actually watch them, and he was not only thoroughly hooked and anxious for Season 3, he's been sharing the DVDs with his friends. An interest in theater certainly adds to the pleasure of watching this show, but the acting, the writing and the direction raise it head and shoulders above so much other programming. It has a delightful blend of humor and drama, with convincing and engaging characters galore. Each season a new romance bloomed among the young actors, while the older actors lived out the, well, drama of their own lives. It's a shame the series only lasted three seasons, but the writers and cast did a terrific job of wrapping it all up here.",22044

When No Strings Attached came out, I was into the techno sounds like in ""Digital Getdown"" and ""No Strings Attached"" but I was also extremely pleased with the Poppy songs like ""Bye Bye Bye"" and of course the slow songs like ""This I Promise You"". But this new CD is too R&B'ish for my taste. I mean, all of the songs sound the same and most of the time, their voices are using that wierd enhancing thing that makes the song sound like techno. I love ""POP"" and being an NSYNC fan, I had to buy this CD. Afterall, I have all of them. I can honesty say that I am not at all pleased with it. I respect their change, but I think they can do much better.",34878

So when I saw that this movie was available on DVD, I rushed to get it. Man, am I sorry. All those golden memories of my teenage years were clearly a hallucinogenic manifestation, a TIA, falsely planted in my brain by subversive aliens, or all of the above.

0,Great Special Effects and Masterful Performances.,"Indeed, you probably have not heard of this movie before, but I must say it was definitely the most thrilling and entertaining I've seen my whole life. The acting by that guy in the blue is great and the dinosaurs are so real looking you will jump out of your chair ... in fright.Despite it being made a few years before Jurrassic Park, I still think the quality is far superior. The plot is about two rival scientists set out for the Lost World and find it threatened with destruction by sinister oil prospectors. If you liked, or didn't liked, or even hated the Lost World or any movies about dinosaurs, you will no matter love this one! You will change your perspective on the cinematography of past movies, and will think that ""Lord of The Rings: Fellowship of the Ring"" was a graphically mediocre and suspenseless movie.",40157
1,A Balanced Look At A Great General,"As stated in the title, Gen'l Longstreet has long been a controversial figure blamed for any number of failings during the Civil War and after. Wert brings a balanced outlook to his story, disparaging some of the blame that has built up. When he feels that Longstreet was at fault he points it out, but also manages to explain and disprove some of the false accusation. For example, Wert points out that the timing involved in Longstreet's leaving the Union Army and joining the Confederates shows that it could be considered ""dishonorable"". Hopefully, a balanced account like this will go a long way towards rebutting ""Old Pete's"" detractors.",23121

Sean is a white man, young enough to be her son.Despite the seemingly extreme difference in their backgrounds, author Sharon Cullars writes a story that shows the reader that Lacey and Sean are meant to be together. I especially liked Sean and found myself holding my breath as I turned each page to read what would happen to him. A compelling and impressive young man, I started rooting for him, wanting everything to end well for him.As a ghost who can't move on to the next realm until he finds redemption, I found Calvin's character very intriguing. His actions and personality brought out all kinds of emotions in me.THE OBJECT OF LOVE will captivate you till the last page.Fafa Demasio",38379
1,Should be made into a movie!!!,"I bought this game used and overall I've enjoyed it. People keep comparing this game to GTA, but this game is way better. The graphics are good and I love the fact that you really are in london unlike the GTA games which is just in a made up city. This game has a really good story line. It's not all about sex or drugs. It actually has a deep meaning to what is going on in the game. I hate the fact that the video cuts are long and you have to watch it for like 2 minutes before playing the game but when you actually do play a mission it is worth the wait. In the end the game is probably the best game I have ever played. I'm waiting for some hotshot director to make this into a movie cuz it really should be.",34764

0,Escape into Darkness,"Quite a story, but reads like fiction to me. The author was able to come and go at will from ghettos and concentration camps. She was a messenger for partisans. She had more than one close encounter with Germans while traveling on trains, all without the required ID. These events appear to be quite probable, but not on top of all of the other adventures the author recounts, one on top of the other. All of her experiences occurred between the ages of 10-13, and are all conveyed with positively no emotion. She is also a model of startling forgiveness. Despite the loss of her family and the horrors she witnessed, she was able to overcome any revulsion and develop a close friendship with an SS officer, who was fully aware that she was Jewish. His name was Hans; she called him Hansi. Sounds like another book to me.",46107

As a person with a long career in the hospitality business in NC, I was already aware of some of Meyer's success. However, it was an unexpected treat for the senses the hear all the scrumptious details that has gone into the creation of USHG. Meyer's story 'reads' like well blended Bordeaux; part Gourmet Magazine, part business how-to, and part New Yorker Magazine. It is a wonderful peak behind the curtain of a not only the famous Union Square Cafe, but also Meyer's other restaurants and ventures where USHG hospitality and customer loyalty is legendary. Few companies have enjoyed the longstanding successes that Meyer's has created and nurtured. Setting the Table is an inspiring read for anyone interested in what it takes to achieve true business excellence.",36182

The kids are terrific actors; the absurdity of the final scenes is not to be missed. The final story is in a distant second place for me. The other two vignettes are awful, especially the first one. I agree with the person who said it's just an excuse to have a few beautiful actresses show their naked breasts.

0,Great photography / Lousy movie!,Interesting how the positive reviews try to make up excuses for this movie being the way it is.Often the characters are mumbling and it is hard to know what they are saying.The kids in the movie often play games and the viewer is totally lost trying to figure out what games they are playing.Brad Pitt is often seen just giving looks without any communication with his kids or his wife.I guess mind readers might like this movie.The makers of this movie make no effort in trying to help the viewer make any sense of the movie.The photography is awesome. I thought I was going to watch a movie and watched it because of the reviews.I guess if you watched the movie a few times it might begin to make sense. Had trouble staying awake.If I hadn't watched this in HD I would have given it a one star!,14336
1,the best story ever,It's really good because one of the main characters was very mysterious. the stranger was mysterious beacuse he lost his memory. all the animals liked him. the stranger was hipmitized from the bird's.We liked it because it had a lot of colorful details.

For example, the author claims that you cannot apply for a social security number from a mail drop address. WRONG! The SSA will send you a number to a mail drop or a P.O. box. His other key information is related to the dead infant strategy, and it will not work. This method no longer works and will get you nowhere , possibly arrested.

Cedar Walton is on piano (David Williams is on bass, Billy Higgins, drums) and his playing totally complements Pike's. One mannerism in Pike's playing, however, that I wish he could eliminate is his incessant ""singing"" along with his playing: it's a boring monotone that really intrudes on his playing.

He is allergic to a few items -- one happens to be peanuts, the other egg whites, but that's it. And unfortunately, 80% of the recipes in this book include peanut butter, nuts, or eggs! Nothing more original. I expected some of this knowing kids love PB, but most of the recipes are inclusive of one of the 2 allergens my son has, so this book was a huge disappointment.If you're child is allergy-free, this book is for you.

Given the incidence of kids with allergies in today's world, it would be great if more cookbook authors gave a section/chapter of their work to allergy-free recipes for kids.",46059
1,"If you liked S.O.the L., you're gonna LOVE this book.","In Silence of the Lambs,Harris' presentation of the main characters was only the tip of the iceberg.

1,"Batman strikes again, good or bad?","Well I can't say this movie is as riveting as the notebook or as action packed as MI:3 but it is a cool batman movie. It has an all star cast, george clooney as batman, uma thurman as the seductive poison ivy and cali's very own governator Arnold as Mr.Freeze who could say more? If you like Batman and george clooney's acting or even uma thurman's sex appeal, then you've got yourself one good movie!",24405
1,AWESOME!,Reese Witherspoon is GREAT in Legally Blonde(the first and second one). Even though I am a brunette I really enjoyed this movie. I'll try not to give away the really good bits but the plot in Legally Blonde 2 impressed me heaps. I believe that animals have rights and I haven't seen many movies about animal testing and cruelty.Jennifer Coolidge is also amazing in this movie. Most of the laughs I get from this movie are from her.GO AND SEE THIS MOVIE!!!!!!!!!,24662

1,Greed is good as good gets,"The greed is good speech in this film is not to be missed! It captures the essence of capitalism - though the intention of the film is anti-capitalism! Given the recent high profile scandals of late many would agree with the premise of this movie! I don't, but that is another matter.What's really at fault, and what I think this movie is, is an exposé of human nature! When we are tempted, do we resist or do we eat of the forbidden fruit? The question is age old, we know the answers, yet some of us set these issues aside - to be confronted with the equal and opposite reaction to our actions and the moral decisions they bring about!This is what makes this a good film!",27909
1,very good,"I thought this encyclopedia was a very well written and informative. Its easy to just look up a character, vehicle, droid, etc and read about it.

1,Personal relationship and Forever Friend...,"This book wonderfully presents God's personal interest in every part of our lives. For whatever reason, the book may not speak the same to every individual. I found myself excited to see such a profound book written to help searchers looking for a more personal relationship with God and to aid in getting beyond several walls that certain practice of religion has built. It further illustrates the true power and freedom found within a continual and personal walk with our Creator and Redeemer that just attending church or schooling at a seminary cannot provide. I can personally testify, with many stories in my life, to the fact that God does care about the minute details of our lives.",26867

These are the standout songs: ""The Love That We Lost""- A song that starts off slow, but progresses into a beautiful song. ""Rubbin' It In""- A cool comical song about a sad breakup. ""Single White Female""- A catchy song with attitude! ""She Went Out For Cigarettes""- A slow moving song about a woman leaving her beau and never coming back. ""It Was""- Another breakup song, but a little more compassionate. All the songs are excellent and inspiring. The first time you listen to it, you may think its slow.

1,Focus on Ackermann,"This is a great album, total professionalism shines troughout. With a lot of 70's prog music, you expect it to sound dated when returning to listen to it today. That can ruin the experience, at least in my opinion. Except for a few examples (some use of flutes for instance) you don't get that with Focus 3. This is an exceptional, vibey album with incredibly tight musicianship of all the players. Jans' axe-slinging needs no introduction. So, moving straight along..... Buy it. At the MP3 price it's a steal. Five stars.Sheppy",31601

He hears it almost every night and always smiles at the pictures and laughs at the train sounds. The illustrations are colorful and the story is well crafted and nicely written.

0,Judge Sibelius performances by the Second,"There is obviously something greatly attractive about buying complete symphony sets, in this case the series by Bergund, 1-4 in one box and 5-7 in the second. I purchased both, tempted by the low price. Once I reached the Second Symphony, I knew I would be disappointed and not satisfied until I had purchased otherwise. The Second Symphony is one of the glorious creations of the twentieth century and Bergund's interpretation simply does not do credit to it; the great fourth movement left me cold. So for me, having the whole set of symphonies is now that much less exciting. The standard for the Second Symphony has been set by Barbirolli, first and foremost with the Halle Orchestra and secondly with the Royal Philharmonia. I have the Halle in LP but it appears not to be available on CD. The Royal Philharmonia is.",28635

Listen to anything by the band Apocalyptica, or even Godspeed You !

If you want to use your palm as a notebook replacement, wireless internet is not an option. If you use it while charging, it might work. This will, of course, reduce its portability. If you want Wi-Fi on a Palm, my advice would be to get a Palm with WiFi already integrated; e.g., Palm TX.

However, after reading this one, I don't want to read anything else by this author. This was one of the biggest wastes of time I have ever read. The only reason I finished it was to find out ""who did it."" Well, guess what? She (Tartt) didn't even give me that satisfaction.The first couple of (long) chapters were good and interesting.

0,"Great Show, Poor Release","It was good to see Matthew Perry back on weekly series television. Sadly the show did not even last a full season. Happily it did make it to DVD. This DVD release has every episode even those not aired. And I am truly happy to have this show on DVD. What troubles me is the way it was slapped together. I have purchased MOD in the past but have never seen one so poorly produced. There is just one main menu. There is no way to select a specific episode other than hitting play and skipping ahead to the correct episode. There is also no way to jump to the next scene. In the end the quality is something I could have achieved on my home DVR. Very disappointing. But, if you are a fan of the show or Mr. Perry you will be glad to have these episodes in your collection. I rate this series as 5 star but sadly this release is 2 stars at best.",47808

From scuba diving to helicopter tours, we were able to choose what we wanted to experience, no deception there. I agree that some restaurants reviews are a little off, but I never ate twice at the same place, so my opinion isn't statistically significant, the authors visit those places many times, so their ratings is more an average.The structure of the book really helps to find what you need quick, I usually read the book before going, but with this one it is not as critical (although it helps). Prices were up to date, rarely the case on high priced islands like Hawaii, since most guidebooks wait 2-3 years between updates.we went on to buy the one on Maui.

He says like three things the whole DVD, and otherwise, it's like he's auditioning to play the role of ""Surfer"" in some 80s movie. Irons has some sort of sidekick in the movie that does most of the talking (and offers the only real instruction), who is equal parts informative and annoying. I kindof felt sorry for him as it was clear the producers (or Irons) made him do all kinds of lame stuff to try to add some comedy to the DVD. Fail.",4933

My pitbull has a vest from another manufacturer, and one strap goes around the neck and the second final strap is around the torso...just two velcro straps in all.

Having lived overseas myself as the child of missionary parents, some of the issues in the book hit very close to home. I understood the cultural faux pas and the shock of moving to a strange new world, and Kingsolver's portrayal of these things was believable. It is not the best written book I've ever read. The multiplicity of voices at times makes for a rather cluttered narrative, and some of the word play gets a bit annoying. The techniques Kingsolver uses are not highly original, but it is a good read because of the conflicts it presents",40633

We returned them to Rockport, and they are replacing them at no charge. The whole process took several weeks. Rockport makes a determination whether to replace--that takes about a week, and shipping out takes about another week.

This work was recorded mostly in the late 50s and although not as technically brilliant as Magic Voices, it is more purely jazzlike and therefore more pleasing to my tastes.

1,"Amazing book, especially if you're interested in Buddhism AND the highlander series","I found this book at a used book store, and hadn't read any of the Highlander series, though I enjoyed the first movie as well as the tv series. I was very impressed with this book as it did a fine job balancing lessons from Buddhism with the motifs of the Highlander franchise. It was especially interesting as Duncan McLeoud's character is perpetually trying to balance his onus as an immortal and his propensity towards conducting himself morally and kindly. The Dalai Lama, an immortal of a different variety, recognizes Duncan in the present, as someone he spent much time with in a past life. The story jumps back and forth between present and past (of course this is nothing new for this series) but what sets it aside from other episodes within the canon, is the nature of the relationship, as the Dalai Lama's cycle of reincarnation only allows him glimpses of his past lives.",18807

He can no longer carry the notes or the inflection that he did in CCR. So be it.But, what I can not get past on this album is the frantic speed at which every song is played. The material loses its authenticity and becomes little more than a night out for those who wish to live in the past.",21359

1,"""I'm going to places i can be out of control...""","Britney Spears, In the Zone is probably her best and most interesting album to date. Well I don't love all the tracks, I like seven out of twelve and those songs include: Me against the music (with Madonna), Everytime, Brave New Girl, Shadow, Toxic, Touch of my Hand, and Breathe on Me. unfortanely, her voice has not improved, it's still thin, flat, and monotone but that's not why I somewhat like her, she has this great and natural ability to make crummy songs into catchy and fun songs. The rest of the tracks are so dumb and senseless. Spears is obviously obsessed with singing songs that talk frankly about sex. We get the idea, you like to get down and dirty, now move on! But still she shows growth and promise with In the Zone, maybe one day she will make a record with depth. Good luck with that Mrs. Federline.",5877

0,Freakonomics,"It is a complete mystery how the author of Blink could recommend this (on the cover). Blink had a central unifying theme that was well-presented and provocative,carefully outlined and argued. This book is a hodgepodge of random ""wisdom"" that uses a few statistics or economic data and then generalizes in a vague way that seems to imply that the ""ideas"" (stretching the term) they present are meaningful or interesting. It seems like trivial pursuit for economics and once again reinforces my low opinion of academic economics. Really an insultingly stupid book. It is discouraging to have such superficial analysis of real social problems get such a popular reaction. Good for non-thinkers.",27464

I personally would recommend reading Chaucer in the original, but if you must have a translation, try Ecker and Crook's (ISBN 0963651234) instead. It is slightly more difficult to read but is both edited properly and faithful to the original. It is also one of the few complete translations, covering all 22 poetry tales and 2 prose tales of the 24 we have (of the intended 120 of this never-completed work).",19790

1,Astounding Paganini Caprices from a 21-Year-Old Violinist,"Ouch! Midori recorded the complete Paganini caprices when she was only 21 and still young enough to think that they are just another bunch of tunes. She spins them off like an old pro---full of gypsies, pyrotechnics, devilish double stops, and a lot of scales in-between. Occasionally she overplays her instrument, causing a harsh scratching sound. Who knows--maybe this is intentional and faithful to the way the devil, Niccolo Paganini, played them himself. I found Midori to be everything she has been cracked up to be: a true wunderkind virtuoso on the violin.",32894

Left Behind is a skillful dramatization of what the end times might be like and what the consequences of the Rapture might be for those that are left behind. One need not be a Christian or even familar with the Book of Revelation to enjoy the book. However, having knowledge of the Bible would help to enhance the reader's experience. I could hardly put the book down and it is very easy to follow. Highly recommended.",2370

1,A must have for sensitive skin,"As it says on the bottle - if you have little prep time or sensitive skin, this pre-shave oil is for you! I know some say this is either too thin or too thick, depending on their preference. The main point I MUST stress is that you should only use 3-4 drops max. I've experimented and used two to three times more and got poor results. In fact, I would say it hurt my double edge shave performance. But when I used a few drops, it did the job and didn't clog the razor blade.Yes, it's pricey and you probably can concoct some similar version using drug store products. To me, time is money. By the time I waste gas driving to the pharmacy, mix everything up, put it in a container, I could have just purchased this instead. If you're a man that doesn't have time to waste on nonsense, than this is for you.",21630

0,Slightly Disappointed...,"As one of the first TF toys I saw in the store, I snatched up the ""classic Camaro"" version of Bumblebee. Unfortunately, it has a pretty poor paint job. His face is missing some of the silver markings that should have been painted, and the ""missile launchers"" are solid yellow instead of the translucent purple that are shown on the package. Also, the windows are painted instead of being made of translucent plastic like on the Alternators. The legs of the robot are awkward and hard to pose, and I had a hard time on the very first transformation sequence, where you push a button to fold down the front of the car. I was afraid I would break it, but you have to push the button very hard to get it to work. I hope I don't have one of the defective ones.It seems like every time there are new TF toys out they get more and more fragile. Not much of a play-toy, more of a collector's item.",16195
1,Solid Sound System,"I purchased this sound system close to a year ago, and I must say the quality of sound is very good for the price.Over time I have noticed no decrease in sound quality. This system is very easy to setup, the wires and notches with the speakers are usually flimsy in home theater systems, with this product I was very pleased with the ease of installation. This is not the highest possible quality of sound, but very close, I personally cannot notice any sort of buzzing or vibrations that can be normally associated with cheap speakers. The subwoofer is rich and sturdy, not to mention easy to move. The speakers, even though small, are very durable and produce rich sound for there size. I use these (in addition to the 360) with my television and a/v equipment. As far as I can tell, it can support up to 4 components. I would reccomend this product to anyone looking for a good sound stystem, especially for there 360 as it comes with a sleek media remote compatibile with the system.",15893
0,Very startling,"OK, it's tolerable if this singer can't reach the Mariah's supersonic notes. Expecting a person to reach those notes would be expecting too much. Can't reach high notes? Fine. Don't have Mariah's astounding vocal flexibility? Fine. But I think some intense vocal sessions would come in handy. Actually, judging from the artificial quality of this singer's voice, we can conclude that the unnatural and synthesized sound is the product of too many singing lessons. I think this very poor performance is the peak of this singer's vocal prowess. Just comes to show that some people are born with talent, while others, no matter how much money they spend on vocal coaches, will never compare.",24704

ADD clients are often brilliant at using their creativity to come up with complex organizing approaches, but then they can't stick with them.

0,Intellectual babble,"Winnicott's book was difficult for me to get through. With the exception of his case studies, which were somewhat entertaining, it's nothing but monotonous intellectual babble. The title sounds interesting, but the content was not useful to me in the least. There is nothing in this book that would help a typical person to raise an emotionally healthy child. Winnicott is writing for a very select group of people: other psychoanalysts.Nowadays, the majority of people in our society consider Freud to be a joke. While Winnicott does not agree with Freud about everything, he's Freudian enough for me to have trouble taking him seriously. His work seems old and outdated.Winnicott writes his theory in a way which makes it sound complex and important. In actuality, it is extremely simple and could be summed up in a few sentences. I'm not going to say anything else about this book because it is not even worth thinking about or remembering.",32703

0,An outsider's look at Japan,"I'm afraid this book disappointed me. Far from being a comprehensive work on Japanese weapons, the weapons covered are extremely limited. Cunningham seems to have only covered weapons contained in 'the author's personal collection'. There's a few lines about this and that, but no detail at all about anything.I found this book very much an 'outsider's' look at Japan, giving small pieces of information on Japanese history and culture. As a long-time resident of Japan and martial arts practitioner, however, I found the book rather shallow and lacking insider's insight. I had trouble understanding why some of the sections, such as the recounting of the well-known story of the 47 Ronin had anything to do with 'secret weapons of jujutsu'. Some of the illustrations also puzzled me, not seeming relevant to the text.My conclusion; If you know nothing about Japan and its martial history, maybe it's an interesting read. If you know a little already, there's nothing new here.",17027

You can tell it is phish in the background, and the lyrics are tolerable at times if you can look past the Dude's voice...you can hear a number of references and even chord progressions that point to some kind of homage to the Beatles...Lucy in the Subway being one obvious example.If I had paid for this I would be thoroughly disappointed.",44411

I received a pillow that was about 5 inches high, so no normal person could ever use it-- my shoulders were raised off of the bed.Unfortunately, arc4life cannot recognize this lack of quality in their product and I was unable to get an exchange on it.

Out of 262 pages 70 is not even on the subject; they are devoted to linear algebra (vectors and matrices). Out of modern Analytical Dynamics it essentially covers only one subject: Lagrange equations. The partial list of absolutely essential topics missing from the book includes: Hamiltonian function, Hamilton equations, Poisson brackets, canonical transformations, variational principle, Noether theorem, Hamilton-Jacobi equation!!! As a trained physicist, I completely failed to understand what constitutes the advertized novelty of the book.

It takes me about 4 chapters to start asking myself why Andrea does'nt just march up to her nasty boss and tell her just what to do with her Prada. The supporting characters are non realistic and the book gave me an overall complex about how unglam. eating at Bennihana's is.

1,An excellent book for all Christians,"I really did love this book. It's something that should be read by all Christians but especially for people who struggle with who they are, what their life is worth and what God thinks of us. It talks about how people judge their own worth by their careers, relationships with other people, and what material things they have in this life. Search for Significance shows us that our true worth in the eyes of God does not depend on any of these things. This is an excellent read for anyone who wants a biblical basis for what our lives really mean to God.",16874

I haven't had too much issues with food sticking unless it was the occasional ""I'm in a rush and don't want to wait for it to warm up.""

It felt like two angry little children trying to cash in on the Chomsky name. It felt more like two little kids using big words, yet, essentially saying, ""Not uh, Not uh.

If you accept everything the Looney Left tells you without questioning anything, then by all means waste your money.

0,A Let Down,"I always thought of Beyonce as a talentless, doe eyed tool with a knack for riding the trends to death but then I saw her sing the national anthem during the infamous Super Bowl, a.k.a ""the Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake"" show. Seeing her rendition gave me a brand new respect for Beyonce Knowles and all the hard work and training she puts into her voice.Bolstered by my newfound respect for her as an artist I bought this CD hoping to find some hidden gem. Here was an opportunity to reveal herself as a force to be reckoned with musically and vocally and she missed it. Just more of the same trend pandering. It's really not her fault though. I blame the spin doctors and music producers that market her career and belittle her talent.For people who like Beyonce exactly like they like her then this CD will be a great addition to your collection. But if you are looking for another side of Beyonce other than a gyrating female cliche in every rap video ever made, save your dough.",36323

The rest of the album is very trancy, dubby monotonic songs. Maybe her voice is gone and she has to use 'gimmic' synths to make it. I don't know. But it is far below her standards. She has done many incredible dance songs.But Madonna, this is not dance music!!!",42485

Consequently, I don't need audiophile quality headphones for mobile listening. When I want to hear great sound, I listen to my home stereo (yes, that's incredibly old school, I know).Bottom line: a good value, as long as you're willing to live with the limitations of a pair of cheap headphones.

En ningún otro lado encontramos un cuento tan llanamente melancólico como ""La Señora Mayor"", o la delicada pesadilla de ""Juan Muraña"", o el velado homenaje a Roberto Arlt en ""El Indigno"", o el espanto y la crueldad de ""El Evangelio..."" o ""El Otro Duelo"".

0,Just Another Headache,"I just got done playing a demo for Charlie And The Chocolate Factory. Let me tell you, this game is a headache on a disk. First, lets start off with the basics.Sound- The whole time you are playing this game, you hear these noises. Not normal noises, but weird dripping chocolate noises. The music is annoying and repeats constantly.Gameplay- This game is based around a big factory, with chocolate oozing and more. It is like one big puzzle. Unlock one part to get to the next. Not really anything mind blowing.Controls- This is why I hated the game. The controls are horrible. You are in this weird 3rd person camera and it switches and fliks every time you jump or run. Possibly the worst controls ever.Overall, this is a good game, but I wouldnt reccomend for over the age of 12. Renting suggested, buying not reccomended.",5958

0,Flynn Hits Rock Bottom,"The most devoted Errol Flynn fan will have a tough time sitting through 68 minutes of no-budget exploitation fodder. A dissipated, cash-strapped Flynn helped assemble this ludicrous ""docudrama"" on the Cuban Revolution. Once you get past Errol's lumbering six-minute introduction (the swashbuckling star plays himself as a ""representative of the Hearst press""), the movie takes a nosedive into sheer awfulness - with plenty of non-acting to go around. Barely released after his death, ""Cuban Rebel Girls"" (1959) was Flynn's last and worst film venture.",33291
1,Excellent point and shoot camcorder,I am very satisfied with this camcorder. Picture quality is very good for a standard definition camera and operating it is about as easy as it can get. On-camera editing capabilities are not extensive so if you need those you may want to look at the cameras higher in the lineup.The only complaint may be with finalizing disks. You have to read the manual carefully as the charger must be plugged in and you have to be in play mode before it will even give you the option to finalize a disk. Fortunately you can change disks then go back and finalize them later.I have had absolutely zero problems playing back finalized disks. Just put the disk in a DVD player and press play.,23817
1,Gently Gold Caress Hair Remover,"This is my first epilator, and I am highly impressed. My main reason for purchasing was for unwanted facial hair.

With the epilator, my face stays smooth for days (not the 4 to 6 weeks promised, but a big improvement!). It DOES hurt, I won't lie to you.

I called my Daughter in NC to see if she had gotten her ""Christmas Present"" and she had recieved the same item as I had and again no Amazon box.I called Amazon and they couldn't do much about this due to ""No communication with their shipping Dept.""

1,Fascinating -,"Dennis Weaver is first harassed, then pursued by a psycho semi driver (never shown) across the back roads of California. Eventually he's able to escape and survive at the end. Spielberg's success with this film early in his career then gave him the opportunity to do 'Jaws,' and the rest is history. Previously he had done Night Gallery and Columbo, and was only 23-years-old.What made the movie even more interesting was the clip with Spielberg at the end, explaining how he went about shooting the movie in only 12 days on location. Included were tricks on how to make the truck look like it was going faster than it was, the unique sound effects, camera locations, etc. Thus, I also gained an appreciation for how complex shooting a movie is.",37394
0,Um....Really?,"This movie was horrible. It was just a bunch of random scenes put together without a clear cut or interesting storyline. Luckily, Snow White is a common story so I still understood what was happening. In addition to the non-existant story line, Kristen Stewart made it even worse. She really only had one big monologue and it was meant to be a very serious moment. However, she butchered it and it ended up being hilariously funny because it was so bad.

0,Trio Paraiso,"I'll first start by saying that for the money, this CD is worth the small investment made. While listening to it, I found myself comparing this trio to Los Panchos. Not a good idea. The style of Trio Paraiso although similar is not quite up to par of the successful and talented Panchos. The voices and octaves do not blend to give the songs an almost unison vocal semblance that is characteristic of Los Panchos.The two very familiar tango cuts leave a bit to be desired. A bit too ""sweet"" as compared to authentic Argentinian style.All that said, though, I would still recommend this CD because the lyrics are hauntingly beautiful and memorable. A good step in the right direction for a novice in this style of Latin music.",41297

The pair of boots that I received initially were actually a half size too big, so I returned them for a smaller size and the length of the those boots was perfect. I took the time to size the boots properly because I haven't had a quality pair of boots since wearing Matterhorns. Unfortunately, there was no ""snug"" fit at the rear of the boots and they slipped while I walked.The first thing that is noticeable on a poorly made pair of boots is that the rear of the boots slip when sized properly.Either there was a bad run of these at the factory, or Danner is ""pulling a fast one!"" - WLK",29510

1,One intriguing concept from the mind of P. J. Farmer...,"This is a very absorbing book that makes you ponder about why we are here, and what is soul? I read the whole Riverworld series multiple times about twenty years ago, and found it really fascinating with all the possibilities of humankind being resurrected all at one time on a strange world. After re-reading this book again, the idea is still very interesting, but I think the book is bogged down too much with personal observations and details, so many details, so the story seems a little choppy. You can tell that Philip Jose Farmer really admired the people he made the protagonists in this story and described them very well, but I think all the detail detracts from the story quite a bit. The biggest thing that you can take away from this book is your own ponderings - what would you do, do we have souls that travel the Universe after we die or does life begin and end with the physical body?",9597

Looking at the copyright date of 1940 and comparing the world as it is today, it was obvious his perdiction of the beginning of world peace by March 6, 1947, had not come true. Yet I thought there might be something here worth learning. I would read a chapter or two and think, this is all crazy talk. Put it down and later go back to it. It was like watching a bad movie and keeping with it in hopes that some event near the end would make it all worth sitting through. That didn't happen. The author gives no vivid explanation for the dates he presents for prophesies and in the end there's no proof for his mumblings having any real meaning.",9873

Your cat may not--they're unpredictable, which is part of the fun of cats. But even though my cats love the fountain, I slowly grew to hate it. It's a pain to take it apart and clean it out. At first I didn't think it was too bad, but every time I took it apart and reassembled it it was harder and harder to take it apart again. The motor has to be twisted and then pulled out of the base and after a year of use it is now nearly impossible to get the stupid thing out. There are too many corners and small places that have to be scrubbed to get them truly clean. I suspect that most of these fountains are sitting on a shelf somewhere like mine is, unused.",19950

1,Good for the price,"I have only used the TI-83 before purchasing the TI-86.From the few weeks that I have used this calculator, it has saved me a lot of time and effort. The biggest time saving thing on it is the solver and the simultaneous equation solver. What would take me tons of time and an entire page of writing, solving for 3 or even 4 unknowns, now just takes a few seconds. All I have to do is put it in and hit solve!Also, the vector function of this calculator is nice for my Calc III, statics, and Physics classes. It comes most handy when working in 3D. However, the interface is hard to work with and can take too much time. They should come up with a faster and easier to use menu to edit, enter, and use vectors.Other than these things, it does everything the TI-83 does without any trouble. It is a good scientific calculator, as long as your teacher allows it to be used!I am glad I made this purchase.",35393

Clover DOES experiment wonderfully and fascinatingly with the surface shimmer of his subjects, but this kind of willed approach to the making of poems results, too often I think, in work that borders on the offensive.

Hopefully he will earn the coming gush of praise with a more deeply felt second book.",7265

This protein has one of the lowest carb contents out there. This makes it not as sweet (like Syntha 6) but I still think it tastes really good. My body seems to like it and it doesn't cause any digestive problems or gas like some of the others I've tried. Overall, this is probably one of the best tasting proteins with water.

1,Good video,"I enjoy this video a great deal. It amazes me that Joynan's a grandmother and looks so great. She explains the moves clearly. Each teacher/video offers a slightly different approach, and her explanation clarifies some things that I was missing on other videos. She is very clear and has a patient, gentle and encouraging way of describing the movements and correct posture. I also like how she has segments of how to use a veil and zils, and there are a couple of dance segments, which are great. She doesn't dance or teach in cheesecake costumes, which is wonderful. My only real complaint would be I didn't care for the video effects during the dances. It was a bit too-eighties, though slight (fortunately) and I felt it didn't fully showcase her moves as well as it could have.",555
0,Don't waste your money,"I purchased these optimistically; I needed a new pair of headphone that would fit into my ears and not fall out. After reading reviews, I felt that these would be perfect because they supposedly conform to your ears well. For the first week they do wonderfully, but the ""marshmallow"" material began degrading very quickly. I use my headphones everyday, and these just don't pull their weight. I have worn them for two weeks and that's all they're good for. I am forced to purchase new headphones if I want to continue listening to music without the headphones falling out.",40706
0,Ray,"This album really does suck. I bought the album last night and there are only two songs that I stand listening to in their entirety. That means that I paid about $6 each for two songs. I bought the CD because I saw Ricky on tv talking about the lyrics and the style and I became curious. After listening to the CD, I realized that the lyrics really are cliche. I was expecting SOME depth but there's none to be found. Honestly, some of the lyrics are so cliche and you could turn of the CD and play complete that line and your guess would probably be right!",45910

1,The best cd ever of U2,"This is without any doubt, the best cd Bono and company have done. I really enjoyed it, it's very good, and it works for some people that have heard U2 in their latest album and didn't like it, to show them that they played very well. The B-sides are very well, not that comercial than the first disc of course but if you wanna' hear something new about U2, it's good to hear it for a while. The album only has one problem: some songs are better in concert version, and they put all the original songs. Examples of these songs are Sunday Bloody Sunday, Bad and I will follow. There are two songs still,that could be replaced for others that are better, like Angel of Harlem, When Love comes to town and The unforgettable fire. Besides that, this is a very good disc, that all U2 fan must have.",16526

The story line is weak -- it had potential! Just imagine a growing green orb being the root of all evil! -- and is primarily based on carnal relations between the underdeveloped, 2 dimensional characters. It will certainly cater to anyone with a one track mind or an admiration for empty, shallow sexual scenes. Erotic? Hardly.

1,Kirk Franklin...Again,"I began listening to this CD and was drawn to the title song. Hero delivers a heroic performance by Kirk's new group. After listening through most of the tracks I reviewed the making of the CD and the `Looking For You' video at kirkfranklin.us. That said, I will have to say this is his best CD to date.I have noticed one reviewer that commented on the lack of worship music in contrast with the Rebirth of Kirk Franklin. Think about it, his first CD was in the footsteps of Rebirth and now we have a CD that mirrors Whatcha Lookin' For. He was reborn.A truly great production with beautiful melodies, grooves and samplings from the greats including Stevie Wonder, Earth, Wind & Fire and Patrice Rushen to mention a few. If you enjoy Kirk Franklin's young and fresh approach, I highly recommend this CD. If you liked the Nu Nation Project, Whatcha Lookin' For and God's Property, do yourself a favor and pick it up.",4379

0,A Standard Physics Textbook,"This is one of the most standard texbooks around. It has all the standard topics. It has the standard modern ""important formulae in boxes"" appearance. It has those pesky ""problem solving tactics"" boxes basically designed to turn the act of learning Physics into an immensely dull, insipid process of inculcation with an emphasis on applying it to problems involving"" leaping Armadillos"", monkeys and Tarzan's tree habits. True,the authors are justified in trying to make the text ""interesting"" - but my humble opinion is that all they've managed to do is earn the resentment of any self-respecting Phyiscs student in the world who has ever been forced under the yoke of this terrible tome (so far I don't know anyone who likes this book).Then again, I'm just bitter.Alternative readings that I could suggest (if you happen to be one of the aforementioned students) include the Feynman Lectures and the first parts of Slater and Frank's ""Mechanics.""",11154

1,Back To Soul,"Denise LaSalle is a soul singer of the old school. She does not indulge in vocal gymnastics but makes you feel the hurt, the pain and the desire of love and lust gone right and wrong. The bulk of the material is self penned and mostly you hear real musicians: listen to the blasting horn section on 'This bedroom's on fire' and the rock steady bass on every track. There's boastful blues, hurting country soul, slinky soulful grooves and a dash of gospel. Denise lives the lyrics and as with the best vocalists the singing conveys so much more than mere words can do.To boot the set is recorded in the legendary Royal studios in Memphis with Willie Mitchell contributing. Lastly this is a 2 cd set at single cd price - great value and great enjoyment.",35321
1,Women are more dangerous than men,"Women have a harder time with boundaries which is why in the world of competition they are more dangerous. Spy agencies learned long ago that men compartmentalize their lives while women cannot. Women spies were much more successful in sabotage missions because they could hide as wolves under sheep's clothing much easier. Ever wonder why women in leadership positions endure better in male dominated fields? The other women are few and far between and like many a Queen Bee in history, an Empress will defend her throne with far more subversive tactics than a man. An excellent book to know how to keep your friends close but your enemies even closer.",19522

With songs such as Love you More Everyday, On My Way, Bedda to have loved, In Those Jeans, Bedda Man, and Our First Born Ginuwine proves he is the master of ballads and proves that it's not only his looks and his dancing skills that makes him the top r&b artist today. He shows on songs like sex and hell yea that he could get the clubs bumpin too. This cd is off the hook, there isnt 1 bad song on it and this should be considered the top r&b cd for 2003.

1,Van Impe's Revelation Revealed is a Good Study in Revelation,"Jack Van Impe has written a wonderfully concise and understandable book on the mysterious Biblical book of Revelation. Revelation is the last book of the Bible, written by John in his last remaining years, while exiled on the island of Patmos. Revelation is written in a highly symbolic manner, and it is the understanding of these symbols that makes this such a controversial book. Once the symbols are understood, and this is what Van Impe does, the Book of Revelation makes perfect sense.Van Impe takes Revelation verse by verse and proceeds from the beginning to end of the book explaining the symbols of the book, giving applicable history as needed, and relating how Revelation is relevent today. It makes a very good Bible study.For the reader who wants to understand Revelation, this is a great place to start.Jim ""Konedog"" Koenig",21252

I have a better idea: get some soap, some facial scrub, some toner, and some spf moisturizer. Wash your face, scrub it, tone it, and moisturize it. The results will be exactly the same, cleanup will be much easier, and unless you buy .5oz tubes of each, you'll have a lot more product left when you're done.",20167

1,A Fun and Entertaining movie,"I think most people understand that this is definitely just a ""dumb"" movie to just relax and enjoy. I bought it expecting a medicore plot and silly action driven by two gorgeous ladies, and that's what the movie is. It's a fun movie, and definitely not bad, if you go in with the right expectations. Sure the acting isn't top notch, but Cruz and Hayek obviously look like they enjoyed doing the movie, and I think most people will enjoy watching this ""unlikely"" pair of bandidas",49412

0,What a mess!,"Like other reviews, I've had problems with this coffee maker spilling coffee all over the counter. The problem seems to be the level in the back of the unit that is supposed to tell if the carafe is in place (so you can remove it while brewing). The problem is that if the carafe isn't positioned perfectly then the drip will be blocked and coffee will eventually overflow.It seemed to work for me OK for a while but now it seems to always overflow.Bad design; stay away.",1094

0,Gardner simply can't write Bond novels!,"I shall start by saying that I am an avid James Bond fan, not just the movies, but to a far greater extent...the original novels. I have all of Ian Flemmings books, I have read them again and again, and they are still as good today as they were 50 odd years ago. I bought the John Gardner novels in order to finish my collection, I would never buy them in order to get enjoyment out of them! Mr Gardner cannot even begin to fill the shoes of Ian Flemming. His stories are too far fetched, his twists and plots are so over the top they are confusing and the pace of all the books I have read, is as slow as hell! I would only recommend buying this book, Seafire, or any other Gardner Bond Novel if you are a dedicated collector - because no enjoyment can be got out of these.",25738

1,The Songstress,"I was in love with Anita Baker's voice after a quiet storm radio program in Philly played 'Angel'. I was overjoyed when this disc was finally released and out of 8 songs - I truly dislike only 2...'Squeeze Me' & 'Do You Believe Me' do absolutely nothing for me.Anita's voice shines on 'Angel', the stunning 'You're The Best Thing Yet', 'No More Tears', 'Will You Be Mine', 'Feel the Need' (where she stretches from the lower to upper register so effortlessly) and 'Sometimes'.If you love r&b; - excuse me, GOOD r&b; music, this is an excellent disc to add especially if you're building an Anita collection.",11795
0,Couldn't wait for it to end,"We watched this video for the first (and probably last) time last night. What a snoozer! The video is far too long, and isn't designed for the short attention spans of most younger children. Also, there is a good deal of panicking and yelling when there is any mention of the mom going into labor (not only a poor example of how to react, but annoying as well). We were hoping that the video would have more segments of actual babies and families that were expecting, but unfortunately, there is only one short segment with non-puppet babies in it. Definitely not one of the better Sesame Street productions.",24111

1,Conservative perceptions from a democrat.,Zell Miller demonstrates outstanding courage to take a stand against the current liberal bias in his democrat party.

And it is a total insult to swipe ""Wonderful World"" from the great Louis Armstrong!!! Can't KG do anything original? Apparantly not, as these tunes have been done thousands of times by other artists, and he did absolutely NOTHING to distinguish himself with. I swear he played every corny lick known to a sax player that there is. But the worst part is, every idiot in the world will buy it. Just another example of how garbage sells.",12632

I would truely recomend this item to anyone who is traveling with a carseat.,8817
1,It is not that different.,"It sounds like estradisphere with vocals. It is pretty good if you like that sort of thing. The drumming is basic for metal and the guitar melodies sound familar. Add a little violin some piano, electronics and horns occationaly and it makes it sound different enough. The songs slow down sometimes for a change in pace which is nice. Twards the end it starts to sound a little more like sleepy time gorilla museum.",15545

So far, this little unit has exceeded expectations, which were lowered by some of the other reviews here. I realized during setup that a user would really have to herp out in order to strip this unit's gears. Basically, I would not attempt to make poi pasta with this unit, nor feed it fist-sized lumps of glutenous dough. Otherwise, it seems to do its job, and makes mothers happy.",8791

0,Big dissapointment....,"For me this was a much anticipated album and after hearing the title track I was a little curious but also cognizant of the fact that initial singles usually don't represent the best of a release. Well, this one in fact does. I am a HUGE KX fan and usually will take some departure in sound in stride (Bulbous grew on me big time). However, it's quite obvious that this collage of memorabilia of the band's early days proves that they covered a lot of pop tunes in the early 80's. I would describe this essentially as a rehash of songs from that era with the blazing digital dexterity of Ty Tabor sprinkled throughout. To me that's the only saving grace, unfortunately. As much as I appreciate their roots I can't say that this is worth having. For dedicated fans only--maybe, even if only to note the quantum leap that transpired from the style of this era to that of their debut LP, Out of the Silent Planet.",17883

1,Buyer Beware! Once you open it...,"no other cookbook will do! I stumbled across this gem at my local library one warm summer day. The rest, as they say, is history: my other cookbooks have been gathering dust ever since.Every recipe I've tried has been really fabulous - truly, there isn't a dud in this book. The Curried Zucchini Risotto (a dream of saffron, sherry, fresh mint and cilantro - along with the titular ingredients) was an instant hit, the roast chicken recipe IS as good as they say, and the Lemon Lavendar sugar cookies were the star of holiday care packages.Another nice feature is the range of options here: though we enjoy meat, we only eat it once or twice a week, and Hamersley offers a wealth of delicious vegetarian dishes - from hearty salads (the roasted vegetable salad with romesco sauce is a regular on our table, well worth the lengthy prep time) and soups to delicious gratins and tarts.There's a lot to love about this book!",41266
0,I'm disappointed...,"Decided to watch this movie last night after seeing almost perfect ratings from other users. I'm a little disappointed.

1,You'll laugh until your gut hurts!,"I've been waiting patiently forever for this movie to finally come out on DVD. Nicholas Cage, John Lovitz and Dana Carvey make this movie utterly hilarious throughout. Cage plays the typical normal, logical, calculating brother of the 3. John Lovitz is the brother you can never trust and Carvey is a goofy, klepto-maniac who hardly uses any common sense. When these 3 come together in a scene it's hard to imagine something funny ""not"" happening. 3 Diverse and conflicting personalities make for a great comedy farse!",11095

However, the pair I just bought for over $50+ looks awful and worn after just over a month or so. I'm really bummed and disappointed at the same time. They either are cheapening their materials, or I got a pair in a absolutely awful batch. Sheet happens. Old Friend Men's here I come!",29113

(If you've never installed a HD or CD drive before, you'll want to go slow, but it's easy. ...Really.) While the printed documentation isn't what I'd call exhaustive, when combined with the online help screens, there is no lack of support. As for performance... Okay, maybe it's not a real ""screamer"" when it comes to speed, but it gets the job done with ease. In short, if your need for a CD-R/RW drive is personal rather than commercial, you just can't find a better value!",44998
0,One of the worst movies I've ever seen,"And I've seen a LOT of movies. Crass, raunchy, and vulgar most of the time; bone-crushingly predictable all of the time. I actually felt sorry for the actresses in the bridesmaid roles; they want to be stars so badly they were willing to subject themselves to the humiliation of a terrible script and degrading physical stunts. Sometimes that kind of ""humor"" may actually be funny if it's handled skillfully and not overdone, but this movie tries way too hard, and it shows. No subtlety whatsoever. What a disappointment -- I'd heard so much about this movie and really wanted to see it. From the opening scene on, it's really nothing but meaningless sex, bodily functions, and profanity, with a few pratfalls here and there. Don't waste your time.",49873

My favorite song is ""Hey Jude"", and it was very disconcerting not to have the entire song on the DVD. Instead, after some filler before the song, the song was joined in progress, probably about two minutes into it.

The problem is with the hood, It is flimsy and flops every which way. If you try to adjust it, it flops forward and covers the entire front. It will fall backwards to if all the snaps are not in place. When the snaps are in place though, it does not fully cover the child in the front. Also the tray opens in the middle and does not stay shut unless there is an infant seat attached to it. There are soooo many straps, snaps, and hooks, it is quite difficult to figure out. Also the front seat is adjusted with a dial and it does not stay up all the time. It will fall back when you least expect it.",1051

1,Awesome,"I recently received my Samsung WEP 200 in the mail. I own a Blackberry Curve (8300). It took an hour to charge to full, and only about 30 seconds to pair it with my phone. Ever since then I haven't stopped using it. It works great for voice dialing when I'm driving. I've been asking people if they can hear me on it, and I've gotten great responses back. Most people couldn't believe that I was even on a bluetooth headset.Fortunately for me, the ear bud fits in my ear. It came with two other cover sizes for larger ear holes. It also came with an ""over the ear"" clip on device, in case it still didn't fit.I don't have any criticisms of this headset. Although, I tend to be somewhat clumsy, and it is a little small, so I worry that I might break it if I'm not careful. However, despite it's size, the buttons are easy to press even during use.Overall, a great product, and at the price, you can't go wrong. I'm even considering getting a second one as a back up just in case.",42863
0,Taken Out of Context + Anti-Catholic at Heart = LIES,"Mr. Hunt's book about the Catholic Church is ""poorly researched"" and written with ""bad taste"" are the ONLY good criticisms I could give his book. I don't know where he learned to use references, but when used them, he either takes the excerpt OUT OF CONTEXT and distorts the originial author's meanings -OR- he uses excerpts from sources which DOESN'T EVEN EXIST! Please, Mr. Hunt...do more research before writing a book about something or someone you OBVIOUSLY don't understand. For those of you who truly desire to know what the Catholic Church is all about, I recommend Karl Keating's book, ""Catholicism and Fundamentalism : The Attack on Romanism by Bible Christians."" If you're going to disagree with the Catholic Church, at least know what it TRULY teaches and not what an anti-Catholic THINKS it teaches. God bless.",41264

All in all, it now works but I don't know if it was worth the grief it caused before I got it working.",35031
1,FADE,By far the best Kyle Mills book I have had the pleasure of reading. If this isnt made into a movie a lot of non readers will miss one heck of a story. Most exciting book I have read in a couple months(that's saying a lot because I have read 15 books in the past 9 weeks.),17331
1,DURABLE LONG TERM PURCHASE,This canner is awesome. It will last my family for generations. If you want something that will can large amounts of food for a long time this is it. It is rather large and very heavy but that is what I wanted. If you want something smaller be prepared to be able to do less at one time. It just barely fits between the oven and the microwave so I went out into the garage and used the turkey fryer to can. All of the heat stays outside. I called customer service afer I chipped the handle and they took care of it by sending a new one out. They also answered a long list of questions that I had about canning without showing any impatience. I am very happy with it. Thanks,46584
0,Enough with the Lions!,"I completely understand and genuinely enjoy the Chinese tradition of the lion dance. It is a visually stunning and moving thing to see when done by a capable dancer. But this movie, while building to the climactic end scene, has about 500 lions dancing at the end. All of the lions are trying to defeat all the other lions, and all the while the viewer is left to be confused. Clubfoot was a great addition, but enough with the lions! ...",23147

1,A worthwhile textbook,"I found teaching from this a good corrective to bland and irrelevant fyc textbooks. It's built around a series of snowballing exercises that guide students from thinking about an issue that individually concerns them to becoming knowledgeable on that issue. In the process they pick up the basics of research, writing, and revision. It's progressive a la Dewey and Freire, with a heavy dose of logical reasoning, critical readings of sources, and media critique thrown in.One caveat: its layout could use some work. It's hard on the eyes at times. But if you're a progressive fyc instructor, you'll like this. If you're looking for a more standard textbook, it might be too provocative and/or political.",49847

0,It's a shame really,"I am going to start off this review with saying that the author, almost, did everything right with this book. The characters are awesome and you feel like you know them, the plot is equally as spectacular, and the writing overall is simply addictive.But with all that said, there is one fatal flaw with this book that made me stop reading it. This novel has an extreme amount of sex. The sexual references are bad enough with multiple instances on every page, not to mention the graphic, highly detailed accounts of sex and rape. The author's description is ridiculously noted and disgusting. I could not in good conscious finish this book, which is a crying shame.",25855

The opening segments were dark and scatalogical, and I thought I was in for a treat. Wrong-O! A pointless and perverse plot made me wish I'd gone to see something interesting, like ""Our Friend, Mildew"" or ""The Wit and Wisdom of Attorney General John Mitchell"". In a climactic finish to the film, when the writer & director could used suspense, and hinted at the finish, they instead smash the viewer over the head. Of the 5 people I saw this film with, only 2 were around at the end. My friend said afterwards, ""I'm sorry you didn't like the movie."" I replied, ""I'm sorry you did."" I'll put it this way, this is not nearly as much fun as ""Killing Fields"".",35967

0,I hated it,"I'm sorry, but I hated it. After all the fascination of The Vampire Chronicles I found The Witching Hour to be a horrible disappointment. It's not that the book was wholly bad. The descriptions of New Orleans were darkly beautiful and fascinating. The descent into the Mayfair Witch family was chilling. The problem was the ending. At the end of the novel I could be no less than disgusted. I was left dissatisfied and quite frankly almost angry with the characters in the book. While the prose in the novel is as seductive as The Vampire Chronicles there is just something in Witching Hour that left this reader dissatisfied and slightly nauseated by the book. Then I made the mistake of thinking the book Lasher could make up for the horrible ending of Witching Hour -- it didn't. If anything, the sequel to Witching Hour made the characters even more unpalatable. For myself, Rice veered off course near the end of this novel and that mistake was enough to ruin an otherwise interesting book.",33885

0,Extremely One Sided,"Herman Wouk does a great job telling his story of Israel from the Israeli point of view, but it is a one sided viewpoint nonetheless.

They are dismissed as a people who must accept Israel, leaving the reader to ask ""why is their side of the story ignored?""",15096

1,"Romance, Intrigue and Murder...southern style","This is the first Tami Hoag book I have read and I absolutely loved it. Each and every character in the book was well developed and totally fascinating. The romance between Laurel and Jack the main characters was believable and exciting. I love the way she intertwined all the characters in this Lousiana town. Being a New Yorker, I don't normally gravitate towards fiction focused on the south - but anyone would appreciate the way Hoag describes life in the Bayou, and truly makes you want to visit. I noticed some reviewers complained that the suspense didn't start until the middle of the book. Personally that didn't bother me because the build up with the incredible character development was fantastic and absorbing. The ending was satisfying too. This author has a classic, timeless writing style and I highly recommend this book and look forward to reading more from this author.",2251

The songs have been shredded and turned into who can be the biggest pimp. I was saddened at the use of foul language; one of the reasons I kept buying Linkin Park CDs was that they expressed thimselves without explicit lyrics. Meteora was not one of my favorite CDs- I think I liked 3 songs on there. I ended up selling the LP/JayZ cd on here for cheap. I do not recommend spending your hard-earned money on such a pitiful CD.",12948
1,A well designed and durable controller,"Sony's Playstation controllers have always been reliable and durable in my experiences...and the Dual Shock is no exception. The Dual Shock is basically the same thing as the original Playstation controller designed a few years ago, except it has the two analog sticks. This brings me to my only complaint about the controller. The two analog sticks add some weight to the controller and get in the way of rapid button combination pressing in games like Tekken 3, and especially Capcom's fighting games (I think the whole analog idea isn't necessary anyway). So if you are used to the regular Playstation controller, the Dual Shock may take some time to adjust to. It's still a lot better than most other controllers on any current console system.",32264

It opened my eyes toward my paradigm of the Godhead and it confirmed to me the truth behind the scripture when Jesus says ""no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom the Son will reveal him"". It takes Divine revelation, and a willingness to lay aside the doctrines of men, to know God.Deu 6:4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is *ONE* LORD:Jesus (the Son of man and the Son of God) is the Only Begotten of the Father, yet the Holy Ghost is the one that overshadowed Mary and deposited the seed. Hence, the Holy Ghost IS the Father. Yet, in other scriptures, the Holy Ghost is descirbed as the Spirit of Christ.

If you haven't seen ATL this album will probably be alright for you, but if you have its just a joke. ATL seriously ruined it for me. I cant listen to this guy say anything slightly hard anymore or i just end up laughing. It wasn't just T.I. skating around that ruined this album. The non-single tracks really aren't very good.

1,Sergio Returns to his Roots,"Sergio Mendes started out in Brazil as a young and highly regarded arranger. In 1965 he put together an international band and had a number of huge pop hits that combined traditional Brazilian rhythms and songs with American pop, and for a few years he was one of the most popular acts in the world. But the American and European infatuation with watered down Brazilian music faded as the British invasion began in earnest, and Mendes and his various bands fade from public view.With this album, though, Mendes has returned to a very basic and completely authentic Brazilian sound- far more authentic than the original Brasil '65 band. And it's an absolute treat. The sound of Carnival just echos through this album, and if you close your eyes you can imagine yourself in the middle of it all on the streets and beaches of Rio. Highly recommended for fans of Brazilian music, fans of Mendes, and people who just like to dance.",22337

My favorite part, however, were the many minor characters -- who made the community seem all too familiar, and who became interesting in a few very brief scenes. These really show Strout's strength as a writer. In particular, the workplace dialogue among the women that Amy and Isabelle share an office with is truly wonderful -- the constant bickering, shifting alliances, yet underlying friendships -- everyone who has worked in close quarters with others has been there!This book is very well written -- my only complaints were that the ""happy ending"" seems a little contrived, as does the parallel between Amy's life and Isabelle's life -- there the realism breaks down. Also, there's a little too much detail about the natural world - sometimes it breaks the (quite compelling) narrative flow.",30480

The best part is the handle obviously but it does not click firmly into position. It is very easy to loose its position with moderate pressure.Once it worked the shave was not close by any means leaving stubble that caught my clothing and more importantly disgusted my girl...nothing like a nice five o'clock shadow on your back!Still tons of room for improvement in this market. Com'on inventors what are you all waiting for. This is probably a 100 million dollar industry waiting to be tapped!,15613

These four have different backgrounds and different futures, however at this short time in their lives they are bound together out of necessity.Rohinton Mistry shows the stark reality of their struggles to try and make a life for themselves. Often quite depressing, this novel also allows you to share in the small victories that are won.With wonderful characters and superb writing, this book reads quickly dispite the high page count.",11672

1,The First FF I Ever Completed,"...again...there's some real issues with the artwork here...oh well...Now that title is saying something because I found that this FF was by far the easiest (Soul cage can be killed just by casting life). But that aside this game is still brilliant.The characters interact with eachother well and when Vivi's friends are attacked that's just as heart wrenching as Aeris ***Spoiler***. Kuja is second evilest villain ever (below Sepiroth) and all the characters have their own individual skills so you don't have to worry about teams being unbalnced. One thing I would say is a disadvantage is the trance system, for some people it's very good (Zidane has some cool dyne moves) but for others it is completely pointless (there isn't much difference between Summon and Eidolon) besides that though the combat system is great.Buy this if you have FF7. If not buy that first as it is the best game to get you into the FF world, universe, dimension etc...",48194

How easy it is to imagine life during WWII when immersed in the photo library and artifact archive Stan Cohen presents! The author clearly demonstrates a single-minded labor of love to preserve the overall personal story of this critical and singular period in American history. Another Amazon review complained about the somewhat unprofessional presentation of the materials in the book but this is exactly why I love it. It's like the very scrapbooks that the WWII generation used to put together - photos, matchbooks, dance cards, postcards, badges, sheetmusic, unusual war front news stories, posters, etc. The materials are organized in either topical or chronological chapters and thoroughly annotated. It's like finding the nation's wartime history in old box in the attic.

I was able to get good sprouts using alfalfa, mung beans, Radish sprouting mix, fenugreek seeds. I tried to make some mustard sprouts with out any success so far. I bought two of these from Amazon, but somehow when I ordered the second one, it is listed as baby product. I am not sure why this is listed as baby product since I don't forsee to use this for making any baby recepies!! Do they want us to feed the babies with sprouts?",28955
0,Grrr,"I was so excited to get this book and have been really disappointed with it. First off, a lot of these recipes call for special equipment like cake rings, flan molds, etc. And not just one of these items, but several for one recipe. Even through wholesale supply stores, the cost to make one of her recipes is ridiculous. Secondly, the flavors are meh. I made her cake donuts as well as her pretty pear cookies and found both to be bland and tasteless. I threw away both, and those pear cookies took hours just in prep work. Also, with the exception of a few ""antiqued"" ones, there are no pictures. Most of the time, I don't really need pictures to follow a recipe, but some of her instructions are unclear and a picture of what the final product is supposed to look like would be helpful.",35929

Kids are inevitably going to play with the door latch; a responsible manufacturer would take that fact into account and make it as sturdy as possible. If it were on sale for $5 to $7, you could probably buy the thing without feeling ripped off. The current price (over $25) is absurd. That said, for as long as the toy lasted, my daughter loved it.

Their characters got to know each other better than Scott and Morgan plus it wasn't just a physical attraction! They had developed a genuine friendship which was appealing in itself. I LOVE THIS MOVIE!!! The music is truly entertaining! The various songs fit the scenarios.

1,"Fun, But Not As Good As It Could Be--3.5 Stars","I bought this for my son, age six, as a Christmas gift. We have played it a couple of times, and it is fun. However, I don't like the fact that the whole game can turn on one spin. For example, when you spin, there is a chance that you could end up having to trade all of your cards with somebody else. That's just not right. Especially when one of you has whittled down to only one or two cards and the other may have ten cards in his hand. I like the idea of this game, but some of the spins are just too goofy, and take away from the fun of the game instead of add to it.I love the original UNO game, and I think this one is okay. My son likes it more than I do, so that's why I am giving this four stars instead of three.Also, the box that it comes in is useless for game storage. That should have been designed better.

It doesn't even seem to last a third longer to me.So I will purchase the regular cartridges from now on. Same print quality, but a better value.Texas user",7951

Unless ""progressive"" is measured by the number of drumbeats per second...""That's what I wrote almost two years ago, upon first hearing it. Since then, it has grown and grown and grown on me, and has been one of my favorite albums. The more more you listen, the more you discover subtleties in the orchestration, vocal arrangements and lyrics that move, thrill and rock you. Once you manage to ""listen past"" the metal, you discover a whole new album. Genius.

The CD contains syrupy, overproduced and uninspired versions of children's songs that simply do not interest my children.

1,better than harmful antibiotics,I was a bit skeptical about this product at first because it contains only a blend of things available at health food stores. But I had a recurrent bladder infection and just couldn't take any more antibiotics. It worked in a very short time and had no adverse side effects. I take it in the evening--I suppose because I saw that it had valerian and thought it might not be good for wide awake daytime use. It really works.

Ya got your seal pups in Peru, your okapi in Zaire, and, my favorite, your orangutans in Borneo (plus lots of other countries and critters). This was a very enjoyable book, though it wasn't always as well-written as it could've been (a few stilted passages, a few unnecessary ones, etc.). But I didn't read a book by a vet for its literary value, obviously. I read it because I love animals and always wanted to be a vet myself. I would never have had the courage Karesh has, though, which is what makes living vicariously through his stories so much more fun. Recommended to anybody who likes James Herriot and going to the zoo.",1040

Assembly seemed to be easy, except the lower shelf cam lock screws are showing (1/4 inch) even after tightening the cam locks. Also had issues with inserting the drawer due to the screw not being long enough for the knob. Called Customer Service and all they said was to submit the Control No. on the form submitted with the box along with my issues. I will add that the shipment was very timely - only a few days after submission which was nice. Not sure if they will send 4 additional legs or different size cam lock screws, but I am having an open house less than 2 weeks and wanted this fixed by then. It seems once you purchase online, you are at their mercy for getting the product fixed.",43856

1,"Not a miracle cure, but definitely works","I ordered the supplement after realizing that pumping at work wasn't producing as much as I needed to cover what my 3-month old daughter drank at daycare, and I'm committed to exclusively breastfeeding for as long as the AAP recommends. Currently I take two capsules with every meal (6 a day). I began to notice increased engorgement probably about 48 hours after starting the supplement. Since starting it, I've been pumping about 3-4 ounces more per day, which is enough to cover the gap I had been concerned about. Although I myself was a bit gassy for the first few days, I didn't notice any side effects in my daughter (and I was definitely watching out for them).I should say, I had to stop taking the pills for a few days due to some minor surgery, and I did notice my supply go down again. So the pills do work, but in my case at least I have to keep taking them to keep getting results. I'm happy to do it for my baby :)",11864

They encounter a powerful warrior, played by the great Toshiro Mifune, and a beautiful yet strong willed princess, to whom the gold really belong. Mifune is excellent as he outwits and outfights the enemy soldiers as well as bamboozling the hapless peasents by playing upon their excessive greediness. Parallels can be seen to Star Wars but not as many as you might think. Kurosawa's love of all things film can be seen in the impressive shots of the land as well as his cleaver editing techniques.",41729

1,Love comes to those with love in their hearts,"This is Sally Morningstar, author of this title. I am responding to Kim Scudazio's 'rave' review of the book, which seems to have not worked for her. However, this book is not a joke and the magic does work. For example, I was informed that the love cake was made on three separate occasions and each time an engagement was announced within a few days. Also, when working with magic, it will only work for those who are ready for love to come into their lives. I suggest to Kim that perhaps, leaving a review of such scathing nature may point to the fact that she has trouble in the love department anyway. But we are all entitled to our opinions. However, take a look inside the book. It is simple, natural magic, aimed at those who have no deep experience of the magical world. And, like my other magical books, the spells and potions do work very effectively. Blessed be and may love touch you lightly on your journey through life.",2892

Worst of all, they appear to lose their charge over time when unused - so I've had occasions where I've reached for them as the back-up only to find that they're virtually dead.I tried everything I knew of to boost the performance from trying to 'reset' the memory of the battery by draining it completely, to leaving them in the charger for 36 hours and nothing has worked.You get what you pay for with these - better to invest a few more dollars and get a battery that actually works.",370

I can't understand why they'd put such a depressing backstory in this game, maybe if they'd ended on an upnote with at least one character... but every character gets tricked, and then ultimately killed off in the end.

Just when you start to get to know a character, they're gone and you've jumped ahead a few hundred years and the ties between the stories are thin.Rutherfurd follows some of the styles of James Michener in that he takes a geographical place and weaves the people and history in and around it.

It is quick to autofocus, and takes clear photos even from far away. The only complaint I have is that the motor is a little loud, which can scare wildlife, and sometimes the lens wants to focus on items other than what you're trying to photograph.I'm still learning about my camera and this lens, but overall I am very pleased with the way the lens works and especially with the price.

MGA justs copies them. So, don't buy this movies. If you do, you'll be helping the bad guys, and hurting the good guys. So please, try to understand.",46269

0,Gnosticism attacks another Tradition,"As the liturgical experimentations of the 60's begin to fade away, it should be of no surprise that the New Age element within the Church has targeted traditional forms as vehicles for their Gnosticism. With phrases like, ""A sacred text is one which is capable of evolving into higher forms within the mind"", ""...the meaning [of scripture]...is symbolic and multiple - there is wide latitude and freedom in understanding them"", and ""powerful Spirit of Wisdom...as female"", it should be apparent where the author is deriving his inspiration. St. Irenaeus, way back in the beginning, warned of the Gnostic's ability to reinterpret everything in terms of itself. This is just another one, although some of the musical bits are worthwhile.",23741
1,Classic game made better,"This game plays just like the original, with all of the chutes and ladders in the same places on the board. The original graphics on the board are replaced with characters from the TV show, which my 4-yr-old daughter loves.The game pieces are plastic figures of Dora and three of her friends (Boots the monkey, Backpack, and one other whose name escapes me.) They feel very durable and have taken a beating without showing any signs of wear.The only weak point might be the spinner, although we haven't had any problems so far and it seems much sturdier than what I remember from the original.This was my daughter's favorite Christmas present, and she plays it daily (several times, if she can convince someone to play it with her that long.) It's a great game.",4552
1,Excellent Work- A Must Read,"In order to prepare for a television appearance I read TJ Walker's ""Media Training A-Z"" and found it extremely helpful. Not only was this book insightful and educational but it was INTERESTING.

0,worst gaspard ever,"I don't understand why she is famous. These two pieces are two of the greatest piano pieces ever written and I would even say that ""Gaspard"" is the greatest. This means that the pieces are so well written that they, for all practical purposes, play themselves. Until you play these pieces, you don't get the full sense of their greatness. I guarantee you, that Ms. Argerich has no idea what she is playing during ""Gaspard"", she sucks all of the life and sensuality out of it. Did she read the three poems that ""Gaspard"" was inspired by, which are printed on the first page of the Durand edition. Probably not. It is not that difficult. I will give her more credit for the Schumann, there is less opportunity to screw up.Bob, R, Seattle",5470

0,Uris lets us down,"I'm a fan of Mr. Uris and when I saw this book in an airport before a long flight, I was excited. That excitement didn't last long. DO NOT BUY this book! It is shallow and was apparently rapidly written and edited. There are some glaring errors in the book and the main characters are stereotypical. I don't mind an author with an agenda - I love Gore Vidal, but don't agree with him on much politically - but there has to be something of value in the writing. Nothing here!",1245

There seems to be a lot of charachters but McCrae does such a great job of defining each one very distintively that you can easily keep up with everything. The book really seems like it would be a great movie..I hope it does..I love books/movies like this that have tons of things going on and you are trying to connect them all together and then suddenly everything is revealed..and this book does not fail in the ""twisting plot"" department.

1,Dokken rocks with Reb on guitar,"When George departed again I wasn't sure who'd fill his shoes. Upon hearing the CD ""Erase the Slate"", I knew Reb was up for the challenge. In addition to ""Erase the Slate"" the songs ""Maddest Hatter"" and ""Voice of the Soul"" feature some angry growls & crazy squeals from Rebs guitar...Even when it's kicked down with the ballads ""In Your Honour"" and ""Who Believes"" the guitar solos are powerful. The songs are catchy too and include a cover version of ""One"". This CD rocks with the best of them. I've got every Dokken CD and this one is my favorite hands down.The Japanese import includes the songs ""Sign of the Times"" & ""Upon Your Lips"" which are absent from the US release.Also, check out the ""Live From the Sun"" CD & DVD.",36160
1,Hill's Best Film,"Hard Times is hands down Walter Hill's best film. Some of you may disagree, favoring Southern Comfort, Long Riders, or The Warriors or maybe even 48 Hours, but in the end all those films have certain elements that hold them back. Hard Times, on the other hand is, as another writer has put it, a great ""Mid-Seventies movie."" Bronson and the rest of the cast are perfect. The story is pared down and action packed. The characters are inetersting and the story has a nice ring to it. The actors are probably what makes the film. You just don't have the caliber of Bronson, Coburn and Martin these days. These days Hill just makes the same thing over and over, seemingly trying to recapture his past glory, but none of his films is as successful as Hard Times. And maybe best of all, no bus chases.",27775

1,How to bake a brutality cake.,"This latest tale of John Rambo is sticky sweet gore candy. It seems that Sly woke up one day and decided it was time for a carnival of violence that wold make Verhoeven stand up salute. Easily 60% of this movie an a homage to carnage, a shining temple to trauma with our man Rambo getting gnarly on waves of blood normally reserved for only the most hemorrhage happy anime.Sure sure, there is a message floundering at the bottom of this Mariana's Trench of brutality. It amounts to this; don't go to Burma. Especially if your an unarmed group of idealistic white folk from Colorado. Outside of that handy little moral, the undercurrent of this unabashed slaughter riot is how to make a film into a veritable vessel of viscera.There are zero pulled punches in this tale of a horrid civil war. Men, women and children are killed, maimed, beaten, raped, tortured and eaten. Not in a ""suggestive"" sense either.Rent. Enjoy. Keep all children under 23 and females out of the room.",27331

This book was missing that extra umph that makes a romance juicy.I didn't care for the heroine or for the hero. I couldn't get passed his big nose for some odd reason.I will give it this though.

You do the math.Might be worth buying only if you were there and hope to see yourself in the many audience shots. Otherwise, with barely any tennis on the disc, what's the point?

Every time I play this album I hear something new, it just doesn't get old. This is a very technical band so it's recommended you listen to them with some good speakers or headphones. If you're looking for something new this will open up a whole new world for you. The melodies (especially from their early work) will blow you away. If you like Damage Done I would then move onto ""The Gallery"" and ""Mind Eye"" which are two classics. I can't understand why any metal fan would give this less than 5 stars!",19156

The tang is a full tang from end to end, but not top to bottom in the handle. The Gourmet line looks as if as if it were stamped out of a sheet of metal and sharpened.

This is a huge technical error that I could not imagine any competent artist making. She does not use a reference, obviously, because the sun does not shine from two directions.There also seem to be very rushed in a formula driven manner without any stepping back to reflect and make necessary changes. She says you can paint a good painting quickly in half hour. Maybe she can do her method in that time, but a good painting takes time to reflect and change along the way. In my opinion, she does not take the time to see what she is creating.There are some palette knife techniques to pick up, but I would not buy this video for any other reasons. It could lead a beginner in a wrong direction and has little good information for the experienced painter.",39886

It's huge and it's very handy to be able to bottle directly from the fermenter. I love using this thing and the Coopers kits make great beer; they are always fool-proof. In fact, some of the Coopers beer kits I've made taste better than the boiled grain/extract/hops ones I've brewed!

The aura that surrounds this location has been captured nicely in this excellent look back at the rich history of the track. There are over 175 photos included in the book and all are of high quality and tell their own individual story. The collection of stories, historical data and timeless memories is very impressive as can be expected from Motorbook Classics.

1,A Dramatic Plot,": "" Solider Boys"" is about two young men, one American and one German. They cross each other in the line of duty, during WWII. They both wanted to show their strength to their friends and family. During the battle the German is wounded and the American risks his life for him. The Americans thought and compassion for the German makes this book a book you'll always remember. I really liked the time period for this WWII 1938 - 1945.",17517
1,love the game and like the movie,i love the game but not so much the movie. i do want to see a hitman 2 movie but more like the games story line.the problem with the movie it more then less like if your making a movie when your still in school to make movies. the things they need to change is tell who the guy is. i play the game so i knew who agent 47 was but the people around me look to me to give them inside info from them not knowing who he is. SO IF YOU PLAY THE GAME AND WATCHING THE MOVIE WITH SOMEONE WHO HASNT THEN THEY WILL ASK YOU A LOT OF THINGS.but if they do make another movie then they need to show more of who he is and make it realy close to the story line in the game but make it work for the movies.OVER ALLi would rent this movie even if you play the game.,865
0,"The Information is There, I Guess . . .","As a Chicagoland native and budding fan of ""Outfit"" stories, I was anxious to learn all I could about ""Joe Batters"". This book does deliver information I didn't already have, but don't let the page count fool you. Roemer pads this book with all kinds of extraneous stuff, and wanders in his narrative. He has no idea how to organize information, and this book seems to be no more than a rough draft. Roemer claims to be impartial, but opinion drips from every sentence. He can never let the evidence speak for itself. He always has to comment on it. If you're expecting nothing more than one man's war stories of his time in the FBI, then this book will not disappoint, but this is not the omnibus of Accardo information that I was hoping for.",15470

0,Good intentions... Horrible execution.,"Piper Perabo is a great new face in Hollywood and I look forward to seeing what she does next. That said, I believe the director and editor (more on that later) should be taken to a public place and caned with a bamboo pole.What starts as a cute girl-coming-of-age-in-the-big-city movie begins to fall apart the moment the girl who's too shy to sing in front of anyone starts working in a bar that requires her to dance on the bar while getting buckets of water dumped on her. ""Oh I'm too shy to sing one of my songs in front of my new date, but I'll strip for him!"" What???There is a spasmatic sequence with a phone call, a trip to a club, a family reunion and a performance that had to have been spliced together by an MTV editor that drank way too much Mountain Dew while eating pixie sticks. One character even repays a debt that was cut out so she couldn't have even known that she owed it!Hopefully Piper will have better luck with ""Slap Her, She's French"" this year.",17130
0,Deservedly Ignored,"This ""Dream Lover"" (not to be confused with the 90's James Spader/Madchen Amick film of the same title) is a stinker. It was the kind of lazily written film in which they depict how crazy the psycho-killer guy is by showing him lifting weights, cos, you know, the scriptwriter saw ""Taxi Driver"". It did the same thing for Kristy McNichol's career that ""Fresh Horses"" did for that of Molly Ringwald.",3956

The PS121 is another story.I inserted the setup CD and it ran through most of the setup steps without a hitch -- then -- it came to the point where the setup routine said ""Installing Software."" The progress indicator quickly ran up to about 95 percent installed -- then stopped. And it remained stopped for two hours. I pulled everything loose and started from scratch. Same result.I'm returning the PS121 to the dealer tomorrow and will try to find a new SMC Barricade router -- it has a built-in print server which is a true print server, not just a fancy USB hub.",1996
0,Tedious Perturbations,"This is an expanded version of an earlier text by the second author (Cole). The latter was clearly written, to the point, and a useful resource. The same cannot be said of this book. It obscures the ideas underlying perturbation methods with excessive detail on problems of marginal interest. It also, oddly, fails to adequately explain a fundamental method such as multiple scales. Their explanation of how and why scales are selected misses the point completely. This is odd as the authors made contributions to the early development of this method and, as pointed out by the other reviewer, this is the main focus of the book. I would not recommend this book, even as a second or third text on the subject.",9777

0,Product gone Bad,"I purchased this item 8 months ago for the purpose of using it while taking an extended train trip for Thanksgiving Holiday). I have used the product approximately five times since I bought it. I had experienced sensitive loading with the somewhat fragile lid on each use. While the quality of picture and sound was good, the unit no longer functions. This DVD player was handled and operated by just me (no children), never dropped and treated like all electronics should be, with upmost care. It worked on the last occassion and did not work the next. I did not purchase the extended warranty, Best Buy will not stand behind the purchase and judging by the comments on this site, its a waste of time to take the issue any further. I just wasted nearly $200 on a product that should not be on the market. My recommendation is to avoid both the product and the store, there are far too many other options. I only wish that the postings you see now were there prior to my purchase.",40634

1,Best of the best,"I really liked this game and believe that it is the best of the other spyro games. Although the game is very similar to Spyro 3 there are some really cool new features that even make it more fun. For example, the ability to climb walls, and the addition of various new types of dragon breath make this game more exciting. There are also a series of mini gmaes throughout the platform which make sure that you do not get bored. There are some minor issues like occasional glitches, but then again what game doesn't have this problem? Overall I gave it 4 stars and I recommend either renting or buying this game.",45641

After being without a phone for over a month, I finally get it back NOT repaired stating customer abuse. They then charged me $55. There are 50 pages on google on the USB failing. This unit was under a year old. The Blackberry USB is just poorly designed. Blackberry has the arrogant mentality that they are the only game in town. The operating system on the blackberry is the most poorly designed I have ever seen. Setup is a pain and almost unmanageable for a novice. Don't waste your money on any blackberry (even the storm).

0,Inconsistent,"I purchased this product for my seven year old who has not been dry more than one night at a time since birth. Purchasing an alarm as an alternative to medication was highly recommended by our pediatrician. Prior to this point we have tried no liquids several hours before bedtime, waking him up in the middle of the night, etc. Needless to say, we were cautiously hopefull. Unfortunately, the alarm has been very inconsistent. Some nights the alarm sounds, and I am able to assist my son to the bathroom, other nights he wakes up with a wet pull-up and the alarm hasn't made a peep all night. This has been frustrating primarily because my son began to make progress in response to the alarm and started getting up on his own when the alarm sounded. At one point, he was even dry for a period of five days. The inconsistency of the alarm has really hampered progress and we are looking into a more reliable product.",11831

1,Rockford Files Season 6,"Classic James Garner - it's proof that good TV did go to air in the 70s and early 80s. It's got a quality that few shows of that era had - Jim Rockford had a style all of his own and so did everyone else on the show. Rocky, Angel, Dennis ... all of them consistently helped offer up a series that had few peers. Even today, almost 30 years on, Rockford Season 6 delivers DVD therapy for those of us who watched TV back then - it reminds us why we loved it. Watch some episodes of 80s glitz cop drama Miami Vice (if you dare) and (1974's) The Night Stalker (not remotely scary when you're a grown up and these days, even my kids laughed at it). Those shows seemed great at the time - but they've dated badly. Then watch Rockford and you'll discover that great television is timeless. I've bought all six series and I've enjoyed every set. Highly recommended.",4947

Within 10 minutes I knew what sex was. Sexuality issues I later developed were not the result of viewing this book, but rather interactions I had with other people. However, it can be a very odd book for an adult to own. It may either say the parent is very progressive or a possible pedophile. I strongly believe their are two very distinct sides of the fence in this matter, one which is pure of mind and one which is very dangerous. When it comes from a loving parent, this book is a straight forward, honest approach to teaching sexuality.",26619

They are all solid late mono and early stereo recordings of the standard repertoire, sometimes by famous conductors like Adrian Boult and Pierre Monteux, but more often by lesser-known maestros like Vladimir Golschmann and Felix Prohaska. Here we have the latter two leading the Vienna State Opera Orchestra in some of Mendelssohn's most magnificent works -- the ""Italian"" and ""Reformation"" Symphonies (4 & 5), excerpts from ""A Midsummer Night's Dream"" and a really strong Violin Concerto with Mischa Elman.

0,"Great idea, falls short","The idea of a nice warm wipe is great, but the product falls short in perfomance. The warmer is designed for a non-popup type of wipe box. (If you use pop up wipes, just the part sticking out of the box gets warm, and the rest is cold. If you use the other type of wipe box, it works ok as long as you always keep the wipe box full, which isn't always realistic for a moms and dads. I am returning mine to the store. :(",2939

I got the chance to see the rest of the seasons (4,5&6) and they were just as bad. It's a shame really...It was so good but it just jumped the shark in the 3 season",38174

The only problem is it doesn't scoop kitten poo as easily since it's so small. But other than that, it's perfect. You might need patience with cats that are afraid of everything...I have one that is like that and he steps into the litter box very carefully. He's afraid of the litter box after he get's out since it scoops it once they've left the box...I love the litterbox!",49526

Others simply won't have the patience to discover & treasure this film's unique subtleness.If you own a Disney film, or need every single frame of a film spelled out to you well, or you think Spielberg is great don't bother; this isn't a film for your type.",1403

1,Worth the money,We bought this activity center when my son was 4 months and was very active and loved to stand up. The biggest selling point was that it transitioned into a walk-behind. I was concerned about spending alot of money for something he would only get to use a few months. I will agree with the other reviews in that there is no height adjustment-we stood my son on an atlas until he was tall enough to reach the bottom. He is now 7 months old and still loves it! He plays with everything on it except the organ which is still too hard for him to push. Overall it was the best baby gear purchase we have made.,4763

1,It is the Best.,"I am extremely saddened upon hearing that NBC decided to cancel the best soap on t.v. The writing and acting on this show is far superior than Days of Our Lives (I have been a loyal fan of both shows) . It has always been fast paced and did not drag the story out. The writing was alway far superior than Days. They did not have to repeat and repeat the same lines over and over. The stories are more believeable than Days. Days continues to support bad people always winning out. Another World's characters are far better than Days. The lines and expressions used are so funny. Another World should have brought back characters like John Hudson, Sharlene and made better story lines for excellent characters like Donna. They could have done great things with her. Also Cass. He was the best!! I will miss the show and hope another station would pick up the best soap on daytime. I have been a fan since the show started, 35 years.!!! If it lasted that long, doesn't that tell you it was the best?",4054

I was to give it as a Christmas gift, and frankly, I would have been ashamed to do so.Some of the edges of the guitar were rough... it was awkward to hold and play as well. The body is large and wide, with a short, wide neck. I have small hands, as does the person I would have given it to, making it very difficult to play. The strings appeared to be very cheap, almost like plastic. The pick guards came as seperate pieces that had to be place on like stickers!!!I'm attempting to send this back immediately.

The main character, Jacob, discovers that his grandfather had cheated on his pregnant wife (Jacob's grandmother)during WW2 and had a child with her. The grandfather, also named jacob, comes across as a decent person though. No one ever knew this untill Gertruii, the women who had his illegimate child, tells relatives the truth after her husband dies and she is termianlly ill. Both Jacob's grandmother and Gertruii still after all these years mourn the death of his grandfather.It is a very emotionally complex story.

The best tunes kick up their heels a bit,showing O'Flynn's mastery of the uilleann (Irish)pipes, wrestling with Núñez in the jig-like muineiras; or the madness of Keane's fiddle cutting across The Gold Ring.

Oliver Stone is over rated, which is an understatement, because most actors and directors are these days. Oliver Stone, Tarrintino, and Araki and others come up with a series of violent sh-t and ""offensive"" images to show you, knowing that most viewers will be so ""outraged"" by it they'll forget the pointless plot.

First the carpet brush stopped working, then the suction stopped, and finally all power to the canister disappeared. Sears has a fixed-rate labor deal of $59.99 + parts, but if it's the fuse, then evidently we'll have to spend $130 for a new circuit board, and at that point I'd rather buy a new vacuum cleaner.

0,Cut-price DVD cuts book to shreds: worst film of the century!,"For three tedious hours this bad home movie follows the book blindly and at excruciating length. It doesn't do it remotely well, but if you really like Wells and can overlook everyone in this film not knowing what they're doing, that might just be enough to get you through it. But then they run out of money, ignore the entire last third of the book and hurriedly add a tacked-on ending from near the end of the book (not even the proper end of the book) in the hope no-one will notice!A bad joke, this is even worse than The Island of Dr Moreau. This people have no business making this kind of excuse for a film, let alone selling it to unwary sci-fi fans. Avoid at all costs!!!",3340

0,Not So Hot,"I've only used the Therapy Pad in 'heated' mode thus far. It heats up quickly and seems to stay warm for a good long while. The reason for the not-so-hot review is due to a design flaw. The fastener on the sleeve of the Pad is a velcro patch - a patch that is wider than it should be or needs to be. The velcro manages to overlap the Pad sleeve at the edges. As long the velcro isn't touching any sensitive skin, you're OK. I don't mind handling velcro with my fingers, but it's rather different to have any part of a velcro patch resting against your bare neck for 15 - 20 minutes. Long story short, since there's no practical way to trim the velcro patch to eliminate the problem, you may need to buffer the area being treated with your shirt collar or a handkerchief.",12197

After being on hold and going through giving lots of information, they refused to help unless I mailed the phone back (which would leave me with no phone). It's pretty simple to mail me a belt clip but they wouldn't do it. They sugggested I drive to the nearest outlet (an hour away) and buy one. I regret ever buying this phone. The audio boost is just o.k. and isn't enough. I do love the Dect 6.00 technology. No interference and I can talk a long way from the base all the way over to my neighbor's house.

0,Barely worth the effort,"Forget the hyped reviews this is a very average fantasy book with poorly drawn characters and bad dialogueIt should have worked. The world seems to be well thought out, the action is reasonable and nothing (except the writing) is too corny... The book is completely undermined by the boring prose and the prosaic bores.Now I do not enjoy an author who does not trust the reader enough to allow him to read between the lines. There are no lines to read between in this book. Every sentence is written in a very stilted fashion, and Irvine constantly interrupts his flow with an aside that would, given time, have become perfectly obvious.It seems Irvine was too attached to his work, too anxiously trying to control what the reader thinks and imagines whilst reading, leaving the book contrived and overwritten.So although I will probably wonder what happens, (it does SOUND interesting, it just doesn't READ interesting) I couldn't bear to read and find out.",9941

It was that good.It's so easy to get jaded about books today - often the books touted on the bestseller lists are, well, less than impressive. Then comes along a book like A Patchwork Planet, reviving my delight in reading. Original characters, situations, problems - yet so relatable. Barnaby touched me with his impetuous kindnesses, his slides into self-pity, and his reluctant wish to believe that his life is worth having an angel enter it.And, oh, the other characters! I wanted to slap his mother and yell at Sophia. My lord, how could they do him like that? When a reader gets so into a book that they're shaking it in anger at a character, you know the author has done their job.I've read Accidental Tourist and Breathing Lessons (both gems); now I'm going to have to read the rest of Ms. Tyler's books.",34172
1,Another excellent album from Tori Amos,"When I first heard ""Spark"" on the radio, I was a bit dissapointed and thought Tori had finally lapsed into mannerism so much I couldn't listen to her any more (""she's addicted to nicotine patches...""???). But i finally caved in, bought the album, and am happy to say it is as succesfull and accomplished as her other three triumphs. She retains the wonderful strangeness of ""Pele,"" but stakes out new sonic territory with the live band sound. It makes for very affecting listening, and her howling on this record gets me in the gut every time. A great album from a great artist",31976

0,Lazy Blu-Ray release.,"I really like this movie. I enjoy every Del Toro film there is, he can do no wrong by me. This blu-ray is o.k. The picture quality is not the best, there was some color banding. Features weren't impressive at all, especially if you've already owned the special special edition of the DVD. Considering the capacity of these discs, I would of really liked to have seen the original cut of the film on there as well as the Gerald Mc Boing Boing shorts from the first DVD release. At the end of the day, if you don't mind the premium cost of owning a Blu-Ray, it is worth owning to watch any Del Toro film in HD. However, that's no excuse for a lazy, substandard, and costly product.",34524
1,Linksys Signal Booster 802.11b,I found this item to be very easy to install. My laptop's signal went from very weak to strong and I have not had any operation problems. The only thing is in the Quick Instruction guide there were two different warnings about keeping the antenna away from anyone setting near by. Two statements said to stay at least 20 cm away and another in bold type stated to be at least 2.0m away. A reply to a note to Linksys stated that the 20cm one is correct.,13878

1,Where I've Never Gone Before,"A CURE FOR GRAVITY is a (motorcyle) tour de force. The scenes are countless, brief, heavily loaded with information in short sentences, and all lead to a tightly woven conclusion. Arthur Rosenfeld wastes no words, nor spares us the details to take us to places we might never know could exist--in space and in the mind. Nothing is gratuitous. He isn't afraid to take on issues of morality, to extoll beauty, to introduce flights of fancy, or rub our faces in horror. I was enthralled by the author's talent and hooked on the story from beginning to end. Excellent. Excellent.",25022

When I finally got it I found it was completely useless.I got a 5.5 on the TWE, and I can tell you the exam is not about memorizing patterns as this book tries to teach. You just need to know about grammar and how to answer the question you are asked in a standard way.Besides missing the objective of the exam, the size of the pages and the font used make the book unreadable.I strongly recommend you Barron's ""How to Prepare for the Computer-Based Toefl Essay: Test of English As a Foreign Language"" instead of this book.",13854
1,A great eclectic collection,"For fans of the best song ever, this has some fantastic recordings of Richard Berry's classic three-chord song. This also includes a version done by Richard Berry himself, which is not the original recording (as the other reviewer has posted) but rather a carefully crafted re-recording, attempting to sound as close to the original as possible. This was due to a dispute between Mr. Berry and the owner of the original recording. Having heard both, the differences are minimal however, and Rhino did an excellent job of capturing the original sound and feel.There are some really rockin' versions of the song (I really like the Sonics') and just a bit of novelty, particularly the ""Hallelouie Chorus."" OK, it's a little funny, but loses its charm on the 4th or 5th listen.Make sure to look up volume 2 of Louie Louie, another excellent compendium.",22948

0,Framingham boredom,"The book describes the large and very important Framingham study, that has provided much of the detailed knowledge we now have about the connection between lifestyle and heart and circulatory disease.The topic itself is an interesting one. The results of the study are so ingrained in everyday knowledge that most people are not aware that there is actually a source of this information. But there was a time where the connection between bacon and heart attacks came as a complete surprise.Unfortunately, this book is very poorly written, and does not do the topic justice.

1,Different from Other Leadership Books - and Better,"While most leadership books tend to be a ""paint by numbers"" list of tips, this book is a collection of stories. We learn from stories, not from a checklist of rules. Not only are the leadership stories very readable, but getting inside the ""why's"" and ""wherefore's"" of a lesson in story form is much better than the typical approach of this genre to list a rule and give some commentary.Of particular interest is that the author was personally involved in many of the modern leadership stories he tells. His examples aren't academic, he's lived many of the modern business stories and builds his conclusions on those experiences.Five stars!",11258

Unfortunately, this album is one of the biggest let-downs I have purchased in years. It seems that on Journey Inwards LTJ has turned to Yanni and John Tesh for inspiration, as I could hardly differentiate this music from the lite-jazz sludge that my father listens to.Bukem does a fantastic job of mixing other artists' tracks... perhaps he should stick to that instead of turning drum 'n bass into music for our parents.",43723

Well, the design is bad because not only does it not do the job but it is also flimsy and snapped into pieces this morning. I am now worried that I am actually ingesting little bits of plastic every time I drink my coffee. There are simple grinders out there without these fancy accessories that last much longer. I prefer the Black & Decker one at Walmart that is nearly the same price but is much easier to work with. Do not buy this.",47238

0,?,"Mr. Esterhaz wins my most cynical book of the year award. While I'm NO fan of President Clinton, the author doesn't appear to like anybody (except Jane Fonda of Hanoi fame). I don't think we need to know all the sleaze- manufactured or true- when there remain topics of critical importance to be explored such as East and now West Timor, AIDS, Sri Lanka, famine and the likes. Humor is always appreciated by this reader, but not when it is at the expense of others. The author does appear to have devoted considerable effort in writing this ""tell all"" tale and for effort he wins 1 star- besides there is no check box for zero stars. A waste of time and paper in what sounds to me to be this man's personal struggle at self- justification for an early life style that he now questions.

Your thumb, for most human like animals has the most motion dexterity and it is not even used here. I disagree totally with another TrackBall comment; the middle finger is far far over worked here and is not capable.

Someday, when I am married, I plan on coming back to China to adopt a child. Even though this book shows a single woman's quest for children, I want to wait until I have support from a husband. Though, I applaud her determination. I encourage anyone who is even interested in adoption, single or married, to read this book. It shows two very different girls raised on one very loving home.

The book is strong, the writing style is typically sci-fi, fairly straight-forward with periods of techno-babble which later make sense. THe plot is interesting and thought-provoking, and when Kurt Vonnegutt wrote about sci-fi authors in Breakfast of Champions, I think he must have been thinking of PKD. This is science fiction as well as philosophy, and I recommend this book. If you like it, I also recommend you read Neil Stephenson (Snow Crash, oh yeah), Orson Scott Card (Ender's Game), Robert Heinlein (The Moon is a Harsh Mistress), and whoever it was that wrote Neuromancer, I forget his name.

I think they put that on there because they knew that people would see it more searching the term iPhone or iPod and the giant label on the box that says don't open it if you plan to return it and the iPhone warning on a huge label indicates that I'm not the only dolt to make this mistake.I am giving them 1 star because they are purposely trying to get hits on this product using keywords.

1,a litmus test,"The music of Rhapsody is a litmus test for the quality of a human being in these declining days of Western civilization. If you like this album, you are a good and noble person. If you don't like it, you are a soulless robot sleepwalking through your mediocre and degenerate existence, just like the other ninety-nine percent of the human race. Rhapsody mixes the highest quality of classical music with the most powerful rock-pop ever crafted. They are, by far, the best popular music ensemble in the world, or that has ever been in the world. Some people love them. Some hate them. Almost no one is neutral. That's why they are a litmus test. A soul detector. If you have one, you will love this. If you don't, you won't. It's as simple as that.",39343

I could hear my fiance snoring loud and clear, along with any other noises. I also found it a little off-putting to have to wash my hands after inserting them, and they left my ears greasy as well. Overall I do not like these at all.",43129

What we get is 2 hours of uncomfortable grimaces of Jack Nickolson's old ugly face. What ever happened to that man? This picture is is advertised as being from the thriller genre. That's a lie. This flick is nothing but a bummer. If you like movies that are completely depressing downers, well you'll love this one.

1,uneven but worthwile,"this is definitely one of the essential SY albums. there are a handful of incredible songs, but the album really falls apart a few songs in. The Diamond Sea combines one of the most beautiful and timeless melodies the band has ever penned with a long, mesmerizing foray into pure noise bilss. other highlights: Becuz (a great song and one of my all-time favorite Kim Gordon vocal performances) Unwind, Saucer-Like, and Junkie's Promise (which rocks harder and more unconventionally than any song from Dirty). Skip Tracer isn't bad, but in general i don't like music behind poetry/spoken word performances. it's decent (but not great) as poetry, but i'd rather hear it spoken solo. No Queen Blues is ok but not bnecessary. The title track has some excellent guitar work but i hate the lyrics and Kim's delivery is a dissappointment after the beguiling Becuz. this album is a great addition to any SY collection.",24624

The producers were going for a film which would leave it's audience questioning their own views on sex and love, but it did not. Throughout the movie the cast remarked about life, love and sex trying to sound profound but succeeding in sounding fickle. The most interesting part, and the reason I gave it 2 stars, was the way the cast protrayed the recollection of the same event by two different people of the opposite sex. The film should have focussed on that plot and developed it further. The rest of the movie was actually a waste of time.",23831

1,Great Toy!,"I Love this toy! I love fully posable action figures with powers that mimic the super hero's powers, like a superman action figure that can fly with a remote control. This spiderman includes a retractable ""zip-line"" in his right arm. this interferes with the movment of the arm and so there is no elbow. The string it self is pretty short (6"") and not effective. Also includes a cool painted bendy web that looks long but needs to be longer, maybe even strechy or sticky. It's supposed to wrap up bad guys, but you need the whole thing todo that. The head, legs and arm have very good articulation but no abdominal movement beacause of the zip-line.I am afraid of the left forearm breaking off side-ways. The coloring is good but I wish they could just make a super action figure with all of the movement, long web and magnetic palms/feet that don't interfere with making a fist. All in all, good toy, but I'd rather have the fully posable spidy w/ wall mountable set, but I couldn't find it.",14692
1,What it's Like to go Mad,"This is one of Nabokov's early works, but it's a very mature story--the prose is sparse, unnecessary detail is nonexistent and the story is maddeningly gripping. Nabokov follows (although not usually linearly) the young Russian chess prodigy, Luzhin, through his strange and obsessive rise to the top of the chess world, his marriage to a fascinating and caring woman, and his slow, maddeningly intricate and psychologically complex 'downfall' (though this isn't the right word). I recommend this book for at least three reasons: 1) It's short and gripping 2) Nabokov's prose is inspiring and 3) The story of poor Luzhin makes you feel as if you too are going mad (this is a good thing--you get to experience a plausible account of madness without--let's hope--going mad yourself). Enjoy!",49444

I inhaled this book, thrilled that Jack and Suparna had the courage and knowledge to put some hard truths right up front. In its pages I discovered my exact problem. There is no quick fix, but Jack and Suparna point you in a direction that works--and just might spare you chronic pain, needless surgery, dangerous drugs, wrist or arm braces, and even job loss.",13322
1,The Turn of Events Aren't for Everyone,"This film is about a hunter assigned by a corporation to find the last living Tasmanian Tiger. You can take where it might go from there. The film is well acted and well shot. It plays with some typical situations; however, it goes some places you might not have expected. This is not a film with a higher meaning or your typical western sense of resolution.@@ SPOILERS BELOW @@Events take a tragic turn in this film and I found myself saddened by what happened. I had wanted to see this film and after it was over I was troubled by some of the things that occurred even though the ending did try to have an upswing. I like a good film without the typical story arc and I can enjoy a film with tragedy in it if there is something to bring out of that. This film is just more brutally honest about things and I found myself wondering why the main character made the choices he did.

Not really, but without writing this review about it, you may make the same mistake that I did. It's too bad Amazon didn't bother to simply write in the actual length of the break rotor, because it would have saved us both a lot of time and effort.So, before buying this break rotor (it's 11.6 inches, by the way- I found this out the hard way) be sure you know what size you need for your vehicle.

It was the most fun and really a well acted movie of this type that I'ld seen in quite a while. It will some day be considered a classic, cult or otherwise. Had the directors realized how great of a job the actors would do, they might have cut back on the excess CGI. Still that's not enough to keep this from rating 5 stars. Speed was outstanding. His little brother and the monkey couldn't have been more on target, and were responsible for some great laughs ( thank you it was needed ). The drama with Racer X was touching. Mom and Pops were of course more involved than ever, and Tixie was a bit, well, out there.

But as has been written about this and other Bearcat scanners it is tricky to use, program, etc. I had it working and scanning then when turning it on again it wouldn't scan.

1,Interesting book!,"I liked this book very much. It was very interesting with all the details of Venetian life in the 1750's. Reading history of that era is one thing, but reading these letters really pulled you into the time so that you really got to know how lives were led. You see just how similar we are to people 250 years ago and just how DIFFERENT life was. I am in awe of the star-crossed lovers, especially of Miss Wynne.",43927

0,Beware....this won't work in full sized van,"Got this case for an upcoming trip to hold our Panasonic LS86 8.5"" dvd player. The case itself is well made and offers plenty of padding and protection although the fit was a little loose for our player. My main complaint is that the suspension system for this unit is designed for small to midsized vehicles, preferably those with a seperate headrest that can be raised and lowered. We have a full sized (Ford) van with headrests that are part of the seat. I had hoped to be able to hang the player between the two front seats and although I could get the looped part to *just* fit over one headrest, the length of strap was not long enough to reach to the other headrest.",35163

I learned that AT&T; really don't make these phones, VTech does.The Handset on this and the base unit E5965C do not fit the face well.Consumer Reports rated these phones high, but after using them for a week, I was really disappointed and returned the set for a refund.I am now considering the Panasonic KX-TG5776S",5555
1,Terrific Intro to North West Indiana,FINALLY! A book that actually points out some of the many good things about an overlooked corner of Indiana. My only complaint is I can think of some good restaurants that aren't mentioned in this book. But he does cover many very good ones. The guide to the Lakeshore appears very comprehensive. And I especially enjoyed the histories of each community. A great job! I'm buying an extra copy to send to my brother in Chicago so he can't say there's never a good reason to visit!,34409

It ranges from subtle to blatant; for just one good example of the latter (there are plenty more), listen to No. 9 from the 34 Valse Sentimentales. What can he be thinking of? Makes you scratch your head, that someone could put in all that effort and yet remain oblivious to something so vital.",45290
1,Simple overview of biblical texts,"This is a good entry level book to study more about the Bible. His methods are simple and easy to understand. His survey of the texts and introducing the reader to different writing styles helps anyone to gain a deeper knowledge of the texts.This is written from a Mennonite perspective, and it shows. That is not a bad thing, just something to be aware of. I would recommend this text to someone who wants to study more about the Bible with a basic level of understanding. This is not a difficult text and will help those who know very little about the background of biblical texts.",15234

I also found out later that my battery was completely dead so I don't know if that had anything to do with it blowing a fuse. I'm sure I'll try it again someday.

Sure it's better than nothing but don't try to troubleshoot any serious electrical problems with this manual. I tried to troubleshoot a surge between 700 and 900 when stopped at idle. It sounds nasty. I think the knock sensor is the only thing keeping my engine from dieing. I think I narrowed it down to the map/intake air temp sensor (no help from this book though). Sheesh, Haynes used to be a great series of manuals. It looks like they've gone cheap.",23777

The central conceit of the book - that there is a contagious disease of some sort that produces bizzare deformities seemingly unique to each individual -- a tail, a talking mouth in a neck-- is rather puerile. Everyone seems to take this state of affairs in stride, for reasons that go unexplained, and they're more worried about getting laid even if it means contracting the disease. But nothing much happens - the story crawls along and then peters out. The black and white artwork is rather dull. I can't think of anything to recommend this book, actually.",22884

1,"good sound, okay performance","I'm by no means an expert on classical music, and I'm not eventhe biggest fan of Beethoven (I find him usually too""gimicky""), nor do I like ""greatest hits"" sort of collections for classical music, but I was in the music store and could find none of my desired selections, so I was nosing around and saw this. What caught my eye at first was ""Digital Surround Sound"", and then the fact that it was two gold CDs at such a low price. An amazing deal. Again, I'm no expert on his music, but I know I've heard more inspired versions of many of the pieces here. They're good, don't get me wrong, and rather enjoyable, but the saving grace is the astounding sound quality. I have a surround sound system, and the sound field is very rich and dynamic. But then, maybe compared to some other brand of recordings this is flat and dull. But 2 gold 70-minute CDs at this price...well, couldn't hurt to try it out.",40843

1,Playground,"Very enjoyable album. Mostly upbeat pop; a melding of British Invasion with an R&B influence. Think early Style Council/late-era The Jam, the Joboxers, the Rascals, the Temptations, the early Who and a little Stevie Wonder. George Michael fans might like this, too. Well-written songs with a fairly light touch; the guitars get cranked up on occasion, but mainly it's a smooth ride. The focus is on vocals and they are solid as are the harmonies. My only beef here > production is a little heavy on the reverb and it casts a garish tone to the music, but that was prevalent in the 80s. You might find yourself wondering why a bunch of these tunes weren't radio hits.",20918

0,OUCH!,"This may be an amazing product- but it hurts like crazy. Basically an epilator is a machine with multiple rotating tweezers. You run the machine over your legs (or wherever) and the tweezer claws grab the hairs and pull them out. Some people may not be bothered by this, but I found it almost unbearable. I tried taking pain medication before using this and it didn't help much. It really hurts.Also, this machine is very noisy and makes a loud buzzing/grinding noise. I think that makes it even more intimidating.However the effects were GREAT on the parts I did complete. It lasts at least twice as long as shaving and is much less messy than waxing. Also, I think this Epilator is very well designed. I love the color and it is quite easy to clean.You have to have quite a bit of courage to use this, but if you do the results are great.",20008

Dragons and Serpents have a place in our past history, and it is one that most people will not want to consider. Whereas Sitchin avoids the issue of what the Anunnaki looked like, there is no doubt about their appearance after reading this book. It is impressive, and Boulay has done his homework.I gave it only 4 stars as I was also making notes in the margin of the book, not always agreeing with some of the conclusions Boulay reaches.Perhaps he is 100% correct, but I have also been at this subject for years, and am writing my own book which includes some of this issue, and while his research is great, some of the conclusions (2-3 actually) seemed to be arbitrary.Otherwise a great book.",11422

It can also amaze us today how such virtuoso music was played on what was most likely a 5 keyed clarinet. Klocker's playing is nimble and has a nice tone. The only thing that makes me wonder is the sounds of a doubled solo part - you can hear two clarinets. It is certainly a tape dub of Klocker himself, but I can't think of a good reason for doing it.",2934

1,A Well Written Compelling Story,"Wow. That pretty much sums it up. The incredible story of this typical New Orleans family and what they went through during Hurricane Katrina and its aftermath is almost unbelievable. Although the tragedy of the disaster and the bureaucratic response got the headlines, this book tells the story of how individuals, sacrificing of themselves make all the difference in the world. If you have lost faith in the American government, this book will restore your faith in the American people.When I was reading this book, I couldn't help but be drawn in by Katie Thomas's writing. Straight forward, unbiased and compelling, the writing leaves nothing out, but isn't cluttered with overly descriptive narratives meant to show off the author's vocabulary rather than to entertain and inform the reader.This book should be mandatory reading for all people involved in disaster response and all people who need a little inspiration.",11413

0,Completely Overrated,"This book, like others before it (such as Ishmael) has attempted to use modern literature as a guise to pass on its author's nihilistic and/or otherwise incoherent religious beliefs. I cannot stand that. It does earn points, however, for its completely original style of writing. It also has some pretty gory scenes (such as people's arms getting ripped off) which, in my book, gets a star or two. Other than these two things, the book is completely worthless. Not even the plot is original. It is a twist on a medieval folk tale.",27314

Energy is really uneven on the CD, which was the thing that got me off the bus - too few peaks. If Hornsby is the reason to buy this CD, as it was for me, keep looking and save yourself the waiting.

Actually, I used ""So The Story Goes"" as an audition piece and snagged several singing jobs including a concert tour in Asia singing back up for the #1 pop star in Japan. Also the re-mix of that song contained help from the great Bobby Womack. Joel, you might say 'Bobby who?'. Another great song is the ballad ""From Beginning To End"". See, I'm very careful & discriminating when I give my critiques on others work (I'm mean, you actually like J-Lo's voice - Duh!!). Too many people who don't truly know music have all this negative rhetoric to share. If you can't say something good...The only reason I'm contributing this is Joel's unfair, unaware review. Something must be done:-)By the way: This CD, while not a culmination of all classics, is a very good collection of 80's pop. Very similar to ABC and Go West (loosely, in this case) If that's your ire, check it out!!!",16956

I can't imagine being as strong as she was to survive such a tragic loss. She had to be carry on for her baby boy though. Since this true story ends in 1981, & I read it in 2002, it makes me wonder if Nancy Rossi remarried (how does one find another soulmate? I'd like to think it's possible to have another great love after being widowed so young.) I hope she had more children, and wonder what her son John (who must be 23 now) is doing.

1,"Bitter sweet, fairy tale like film.","This is the kind of movie that nowadays would be scoffed at as too sentimental & bittersweet. I enjoyed it, however, if for no other reason than that of Grace Kelly's exquisite beauty and presence. She has the kind of face that makes one weep. Alec Guiness & Louis Jourdan are great in this, as well. One of the film's strong points is that Alec Guiness's character, Prince Albert, is portrayed not as an obnoxious, unlikeable villain--as might be the case in more cliched versions of this not very original story--but rather as a basically decent, albeit quirky, bachelor matter-of-factly going about the business of trying to find a queen.

1,A nice Rendition...,"I just finished reading the play by Shakespeare, and saw a performance of it in Central Park, and couldn't wait to see this version. Overall, it was wonderfully performed. The scenery and music were to DIE for, and the actors executed their parts perfectly. I do have a few little nitpicks, though: Bicycles? Maby. With Lights? NO. I doubt that in Shakespeare's time they had lights. And Why on earth is it not set in Athens? It looks more like England! And the Hippolyta in this version is completely un-Amazonian. Also, if you're real familiar with the words of the play, you'll notice that they left some parts and words out of this version. But, like I said, It's a great movie, and it does say ""based"" on the Play by W.S., so they didn't >have< to follow it exactly.And I will say that Kevin Kline was wonderful in this, as well as Calista Flockhart (albiet pulling off the 'Desperate Helena' part perfect!)",1313

But when both Emma and Cranmer's star double agent and lifelong rival, Larry Pettifer, disappear, Cranmer is suddenly on the run. He must find his brilliant protege, desperately eluding his former colleagues, in a frantic journey across Europe and into the lawless, battered landscapes of Moscow and southern Russia, to save whatever of his life he has left. The tale leads one to the deep valleys of Caucasian Mountains, toward an ending that can only be described as haunting.",21119

Unfortunatly this new one is more difficult to use because the plastic basket is very difficult to properly engage in the base. It seems that the plastic nubs that engage are just a bit too big, and every time I have to force it together I am afraid that I am going to crack the plastic basket.I loved the old model I had and that is why I replaced it with this one.I have been tempted to contact Black and Decker about this, but haven't so far.",36701

1,An engaging way to teach period history,"This an excellent book to purchase. It can be studied for hours on end with something new discovered each time. It is the quality you would expect from the Pleasant Company, however, you will never find this book in the local library. With its detailed pullouts and pop-ups, it is laid out like a scrapbook. Pullouts include a detailed map of the ship, a telegram received while onboard ship, and a period paper puppet with moveable joints. We learn much about traveling on an ocean-liner from New York to England in the early 1900's from the perspective of a young girl. What's even better is that our daughters don't even know thay are learning!",32299

1,I Flunked My Mammogram,"This book answered all my questions after I flunked my own mammogram. The author is a breast surgeon and the main person behind the breast cancer stamp, which helps fund breast cancer research. He answers everything a person could possible wonder about the medical terms one encounters when going through the process between a ""bad"" mammogram and the various methods of treatment. His language is down to earth and easily understood. I like the book so well that I've ordered several to share with other breast cancer victims, who I hope will become survivors like me!",32574
1,Catcher in the Rye,"I think someone forced to read this book [for school] is not going to enjoy it as well as if you read it on your own. I haven't been asked to read the book for school, but I read it in my own time and enjoyed it. Reading it for a class, I think, would have ruined it for me. Holden is easy to relate with. He's a thinker. You share his thoughts throughout the book and I found myself agreeing with the majority of them. Though it was a fantastic book, I don't think it deserved as much acclaim as it did. I don't think it was a work of genius or a hard book to write. In my opinion, it read almost like a journal, almost. A journal where you are revealed every detail and every thought. If you were to reach into your mind and dig out your inner thoughts, I'd almost garantee you that they would match up easily with Holden's.",47734

1,Great End Times Book,"This book is masterful. Having just finished the Left Behind series, this is a nice change on the same topic. It's a wonderful end times novel, based (in the first two chapters) on acutal facts. Beauseigneur intrigues readers with his very apt combination of science and religion. Although it gets a little tedioius in the exact description of happenings at the United Nations, this book will carry you through and leave you hungry for the next. I can't wait to receive the second installment.",16698
0,Do not buy this smoker,"I bought a Great Outdoors gas grill several years ago and like it. I thought the smoker would be the same quality. It is not. First, the smoker came damaged in several places, enough so that the door would not close. Second, it is not made of heavy gauge steel, it is more like the steel around air conditioning ducting in your attic. Never used it, and have been trying to return it ever since. The only thing worse than the smoker is Amazon's customer service. I have not been able to get it retuned, they are not responding. The smoker is made in China, they used to be made here. Evidently Great Outdoors has been sold a couple of times, and now is a big supplier to Wal-Mart which explains how they have gone from high quality to tin metal. I researched this smoker and found mostly good reviews on barbeque sites. But they are a couple of years old, from when these things were made here. Overall, this has been a very bad experience. I will not be continuing as an Amazon customer.",47393

1,"Really, really funny movie","I was actually impressed by the acting. Never realized that Kate Hudson could be so funny. And Dane Cook plays the tough-guy, jerk in such an endearing way that you will love him in spite of yourself.I have watched this movie several times now and there are certain scenes that make me literally laugh out loud every single time. Yes the humor is definitely raunchy. Not quite as over the top as The Hangover or Bridesmaids - but sort of along those same lines. (I can see how some would be offended.) Still I found the story to be heartwarming, twisted but heartwarming nonetheless. Kind of predictable but with enough surprises to keep it interesting.",49585
1,Most enthralling fantasy story!,"This first installment to the icewind dale tril, serving of the introduction of many salvatore characters. The sheer brillance of story creation and telling is a testament to salvatore's early mastery of this genere. The novel is captivating from beginning to end, with each part unravelling a more epic section of the plot. The telling flows with the grace of a dark elven swordsman, as it weaves in and out of encounters with monsters, and other conflicts of ALL sorts. if thats not enough, the end is the best part---if you are a true lover of fantasy---READ THIS BOOK!!",39643

1,Great CD!,"This is only the first recording I've listened to of the Trout, but something tells me that this recording of Schubert's great quartet is a winner. The sound seems extremely rich and has a 3-D quality to it and the interpretation seems dynamic and flowing. I've listened to it 4-5 times over, and it sounds especially good in the surround-sound environment of my car (using my car CD player). I'd say it is a gem of my hundreds-of-classical-cds collection. Of course, maybe that's just because the Trout is itself a great-sounding work, but rarely does a recording seem to stand out for me the way this one does.",49852

0,fell apart after 1 year,"I have owned this vacuum for just over a year (just past the warranty) and am extremely disappointed in its ability to stay functional. The rubber covering on the wheels has completely worn away. The dust wand attachment broke. And most importantly the handle now gets so hot while using the vacuum that you have to be careful not to burn yourself. The ""last straw"" started yesterday when the on/off switch stopped working and I have to start/stop the machine via the plug!!When I contacted the company they sent me a form letter response that there are ""no design flaws"" in their product and I should take it in for repair.

0,A waste of good trees,"The old addage; ""consider the source..."" has never been truer. It rankles me, a chiropractor, to see this trash in print. Especially from this author. Since he published his own work, I suppose we could also blame the publisher for an amazing lack of editorial judgment. Rondberg has been convicted of election campaign fraud. He's also a known adulterer, has committed perjury, and is a known scam artist. Amongst his chiropractic ""brethren"" he has become a joke. The outrageous behavior of this classic narcissist would actually MAKE an excellent book, though non-fiction this odious would likely not be believed by most readers. I would not believe the opinion of this very flawed human being if he told me the sun were shining at mid-day. As to issues raised in the book, they are unoriginal, uninteresting, and explained at a 1st grade level. Which, coincidentally, is the intelligence level of the author.",41254

0,Poor quality router bit display/storage boxes.,The router bits are great but the wooden display/storage box leaves a lot to be desired. It's the wooden display/storage box which is terrible. The hinge arrangement on the tilt out router bit tray is absolutely terrible. The first time I ordered it the tray had broken completely loose within the case and the dovetails at one corner of the box were coming apart. The shipping carton was pristine so it wasn't a shipping issue. I returned the bit set and within a day or two I had the replacement (Hooray Amazon). Unfortunately the second bit set also had a broken hinge at one end of the tilt out tray. This item again came in an undamaged shipping carton. My conclusion is that Freud makes great router bits but their wooden display/storage boxes are junk.,12720
1,Well Organized Information,"This is an easy-to-read reference book. I found it helpful to underline partic. plants and growing habitats as I read along. The book is well organized and comprehensive. I found it good value for the money and a handy book to add to my library. Not a lot of pictures, but what is there is in black and white, but plants are still easily identifiable. The author talks not only of valuble honey-producing plants, but the basic structure of a flower, pollen, nectar, and honey-dew producing plants, as well as plants that are little value to a honeybee. He speaks of plants in North America in general or a region of N.A., but also broken down by each state and then regions within a state.",48758

1,An Eye Opener,"In this book, Nancy puts on paper more of the savvy advice that she regularly shares with Bob Edwards on ""Morning Edition."" While every one else in the financial press is telling consumers to switch from a credit card to a debit card, to stop writing checks and start using online bill-paying services, and to swap their credit card debit for a low-interest rate home equity loan, Nancy is the only one telling about the costly downsides and increased risks that you will take on with these money moves.To complete your financial library I would also recommend a book by Andrew Tobias called ""THE ONLY INVESTMENT GUIDE YOU'LL EVER NEED."" Andrew knows his stuff and he is able to lay it out in clear and simple terms. Whether you know very little or a lot about investments this book is an eye opener. Both books are great investments.",26567

1,AN ADVENTURE OF THE SPIRIT AS WELL AS A PHYSICAL ADVENTURE!,"In my opinion, LEGEND is an extraordinary tale. It's a quest, a test of the protagonists, and an inquisition into their characters all at once. Their perils are spiritual and psychic as well as physical, yet it's the sheer physical adventure that pulls the reader from page to page, at a can't-put-the-book-down pace.The book it most reminds me of is DELIVERANCE, in that it works out its themes in non-stop action. It says what it has to say through that action. But it has a great deal to say. And much of what it has to say you don't realize until you've finished the novel and you find yourself thinking back on it.It's not a book you will quickly forget.",31826
1,Great movie that reflects my inner struggle!,"OK, well, only sometimes does it reflect my inner strugle ;-) I like the humor that plays out in the movie about wanting to be able to skip Christmas if they want to. Although I haven't felt that extreme about Christmas yet, I do feel that about some holidays and can relate to many of the humorous aspects of their need to avoid it altogether (if only for one year). Of course, everyone comes together at the end to celebrate Christmas as a family and to extend a generous gift to a needy neighbor to give you that warm and fuzzy feeling.It was a nice suprise to see the some chemistry between Tim Allen and Jamie Lee Curtis that reminded me of my own parents and how they handle situations. Looking forward to watching it again this year. Recommend!",20947
1,HALO is the coolest game ever!,"I so love playing HALO! I got it like four months ago and I'm still playing it. It is so fun blasting away the aliens. My favorite vehicle is the Scorpion Tank. It kicks alien butt with the automatic machine gun and the tank gun. My favorite gun is the shotgun. It's funny when I kill a lot of people standing at the bridge in level 1. I kill Captain Keyes and other people. Marines rush at me and you can't kill them no matter how many times you hit them. I usually go under the two people at the front of the bridge. The Marines don't find me there and keep looking. I got up once and whacked a Marine down. They fell down to my hiding place and I kept spanking them with my melee attack. Their blood splatters, but then I just have to restart when I bored of spanking. Well anyways, HALO is my favorite XBox game and I think you should buy it anyday.",19641

The Divas are looking fine. Create a superstar is more realistic than SmackDown! Here Comes the Pain(it sucks, trust me I played it)and any other create a superstar. The players look so realistic it's not even funny. Season mode goes on forever, they actully talk, you can become friends or enemies, you can even set traps backstage, and only in season mode you can steal stuff from other people. Here's a cheat code for the game: go up to the security wall on the left side of the arena, hold down X, than press Y+A+B+R and you can jump in the crowd and go to a place were you have never been in the game before. This is possibly the best wrestling game ever! And it's only on X-Box. Watch out for my next review tomorrow(Dec 7/03)at 11:00am for WWE Raw 2 on X-Box. From you guys friend,T.J.",36490
1,The Bible of Screenwriting,I've read so many books on screenwriting in film school; they all pale in comparison to Robert McKee's Story. A bit of warning - this book is dense and technical. It is not a casual easy read at all. It is designed for the committed screenwriter. I would recommend you take McKee's Story course which will help you understand the book. He covers the entire book in his Story course. I learned more about screenwriting from Mckee's 4 day course than I did at film school.,23698
0,Sheesh!,"I read quite a number of reviews about this book before I bought it and I thought I was in for a good read but I have to say that this is one of the worst book I've ever read.I've read some pretty graphic stuff in my day but nothing of this calibur. While the writing style is not bad and I do think that the writer has talent the content of this book was just too gross, too bizarre and just plain too weird to be believed. Some of the scenes described in the book were so naseautingly graphic that I just could not continue.Not all of the stories within the story are sickening, a few of them were profound in a macabre sort of way and makes you think but I just think Douglas Clegg went overboard.Think-the feverish, shifting kaledeiscope of your most bizarre dreams. Do they ever make any sense?",47201
1,"Rowand Hilder's Watercolor Book, Expressing Land, Sea and Sky in Watercolor","This is definitely one of the more well written and illustrated books on the subject of outdoor watercolor. The illusrations are profuse, delicate, and inspiring to an artist who wishes to create mood, and to put a very personal feeling into his or her work. The book comes in a light blue/green cloth cover with expensively produced reproductions and printing. American born, Hilder studied in England and had his first award at age 18 from the Royal Academy. His life is a study in itself. If you buy the book you'll find his unique photograph and artist's resume capsulized inside back of Dust Jacket.",13699

0,Doesn't work as advertised. Useless!,"I need a pen that writes in the dark, after several failed purchases, I was excited to finally find a pen that actually writes in the dark. When I received it the first thing you notice is how big, ugly and industrial/medical looking the pen is. Beyond that, the pen lights up all right, but you have to hold down the heavy button for the light to work. You don't just turn it on and start writing. To make this even more unusable the button is located at the top of the pen and not at the bottom. So in order to write with the light on, you have to hold the pen at the top and keep your hand pressed on the heavy to push button. Making it virtually useless. My hunt for a pen that writes in the dark continues, but I won't be making any more ""blind"" purchases from Amazon.",12242
1,Bacalls first time,"Bogart and Bacal's sexual tension in this remake of Casablanca is so thick you can cut it with a knife. They had almost instant chemistry off screen and from the ""you know how to whistle"" scene on Bacal gets better. Even picking up comic business for the scene where Bogart is digging a bullet out of the French Resistence ""leader"". Walter Brenan also gives a good supporting prefomance as a drunk sidekick. Of course Bogart does not phone it in; he never does. In some ways the film is better than Casablanca because of the Bogart/Bacal relationship. And if you care about acting in films, this one lets you watch Bacal go from model to actress. One problem, they insisted on having Bacal sing. But the Hoggie Carmical at the piano is a treat beyond that song.But Bacal sings in the Big Sleep too with more success. If your a Hemingway fan, you will find that the screen writers used little beyond the title of his book.",27843
0,Preachy and Biased,"This book is clearly biased and over-preachy. I found the interesting content to be in regards to the history and information pertaining to the submarine. Waddle made a grave mistake and ended up on the chopping block. While everyone makes mistakes, I couldn't help but feel that he was a little whiney and used his religious beliefs to hide the fact that he showed little or no remorse. Personally, I'm not buying any of it. How does a man like this end up in charge of a nuclear submarine?",48617
1,Love this little printer,Bought this printer several years ago and it's still going strong. One thing that amazes me is I sometimes don't use it at all for several weeks. You'd think the ink would dry up and have to be replaced. It doesn't. The first copy I print will come out with weird colors but after that it's fine. The tiny little ink cartriges also last MUCH longer than I expected. This is great to take to clients' home to print up our work together right on the spot AND it's nice to have a backup printer when my big one isn't working.,40187

1,Great Printer at a good price.,"For a MFP at this cost Im surprised. Its very small to fit easily on your desk, its quite, and fires right up to print. Im a print focal at my job and we use commercial grade Lexmark devices. But as for this canon product they have done a great job at a good price. The duplexing feature is a very nice plus. To get the duplexing feature to work, since most people dont understand how, is simple. Right click on the printer (in printers and faxes) and go into preferences and change your profile option to 2 sided. Its just that easy. It saves on paper for my wife whose a realator and burns alot of it. Thanks canon.",23760

A good look into the sport that works to educate about the derby and dispel myths that rollergirls are somehow akin to WWE ""wrestlers.""

It's just too bad that such a great motivator of others can't get off his but, quit shoulding over himself, and write his book. A great many fans are becoming disappointed.

They care too much about $$$ and don't give a crap about quality.This is the same old game with a different package. Avoid.,11334
0,Very bad design flaws -- this unit is trash,"This unit works well at first ... but has several terrible design flaws. The grinder housing is aluminum and is held in place by a single screw which is supposed to lock into a small indent in the aluminum housing.After a few uses, the indent gets slightly enlarged, the housing of the holding screw also works loose and the grinder housing gets a little play.That wouldn't matter so much if it weren't for the fact that the hexagonal housing on the grinder only connects with the hexagonal nut on the motor shaft with about 1mm overlap.Thus, that little bit of play in the grinder housing allows the grinder to break loose from the motor shaft with even the lightest of loads, rendering the entire unit completely non-functional.What a piece of trash!",4042

1,The Best Chronicle on James Dean,"I have read many James Dean books, and the biographies have ranged from bland to overly philosophical to just obscene. George Perry's book has a lot of basic information given in a clean and clear format. Perry does give some more insight into Dean's life in unknown times. Perry's book should be taken as an official bio. It doesn't look at Dean's life in a sleazy way, but it does tackle questions about Dean's lifestyle in a fair & balanced method. The photos and layout are nice. There are extra informationa nd fact boxes relating to the chapter's material. There isn't enough material to make this book excellent, but it is the best book on James Dean available. If there is one book you must read on Hollywood's classic rebel, let this one be it.",42361

It grabs a whole lot of junk out of the water before it goes to the next filter.Will buy again, but the bag is so big that probably won't be for more than a year. Definite buy if you have your own custom system set up, because it fits where you want it and filters well.",28091

In Solaris, Chris Kelvin journeys to the planet Solaris where he and his crewmates encounter an alien capable of reading minds and then ""bringing back"" people they have known. For Kelvin, it his dead wife. There are subtle differences, however, between the alien versions and the people the astronauts once knew. Why? That question is never answered and the reader is left to conjecture, just as conjecture is all that is allowed by Lem of the alien's motives. Lem writes for people who want to think. For those who want tales with neat beginnings and endings which are sewn up tight, he is not your man.[...][...]",10672

0,Writer has terrible reputation,"Let me steer clear of the obvious politics related to any book about Hillary. The fact is that Edward Klein may be a bestselling author, but he's achieved that by sensationalizing his subjects and doing little, if any, new research. He cobbles together secondhand stuff from other sources and is known as someone who does not do research. He'll pass on rumors and lies. Read this for entertainment, if you like, but understand that this writer is NOT a historian. He's not looking for truth. He cranks out books that are the book equivalent of tabloid newspapers.

Don't waste your time, or money on this film A great dissapointment.It's also the waste of a good idea (a movie based on the happenings at Studio 54 would be cool if it was actually written semi-interstingly) and a waste of excellent actors (Mike Myers, Neve Campbell, Ryan Phillipe, Selma Heyak, Brecken Myer, Heather Metazzario.

1,A study in relationships,"Ms. Argiri's book is well written. The scene descriptions and the description of the characters and the dialogue between them pull you in to where you want to keep reading. The relationship between the two older men is one of devotion and respect and love. The relationship between the two younger men is very complicated---- a love hate relationship. It ends up in love and committment. The minor characters are either very self-righteous and sanctimonious or obnoxious, nasty, selfish and manipulative. She does a good job of bringing all of this out.",1907
0,"Contains some good information, but...","The top-most declaration on the front page of Head Rush Ajax is ""Get it in your brain, FAST"". A more appropriate comment would be: ""Get it in your brain after taking a tedious journey down a long, winding road"". I found some useful information about Ajax, but only after being frustrated by having to wade through an excessive amount of fluff, even if the dog pictured so often is really cute. Head Rush Ajax typically uses about 20 pages to present and explain material that anyone with any coding experience at all can learn in a paragraph or two. So, if you are an absolute beginner, this book might be just the thing, with entertaining inserts to give you a break if you need one. But if you're even a little experienced with html, css, javascript or php you will probably find the pace to be way too SLOW.",17397
1,American Idiot,"A point to understanding/enjoying this album. Who cares if it's punk? Everyone ranting about what punk isn't without giving a concrete definition of what punk even is. For instance, criticizing that Green Day is too easy to play, claiming they're not punk, while offering the Ramones as an example of what punk is. Don't get me wrong, I love the Ramones. But they wrote very simple, very POPPY songs and I don't see how Green Day are too far different (except that it's not ""punk"" to like anything remotely successful). Drop the labels, it's semantics. Judge the album based on whether you like it or not. I personally happen to.",40205

Annie and her dad listen to the radio a lot to hear about all of the news that's going on. Annie's mom and dad argue a lot. Annie is eight years old in the beginning. Rachel, Annie, and Sini are all sisters. They are also all Jewish. After the war started Annie and Sini go live with the Oostervelds, and they stay in their upstairs room for two years. While they were there their mother died. The Oostervelds are Opoe, Johan, and Dientje. I liked this book because it explained how the war was back then, and a lot of details.",23332
0,"A Modern-Day ""Plan 9""","C Me Dance's hilarious ineptitude rivals even the worst works of Ed Wood himself. After finishing the film, I genuinely questioned whether or not the creators actually intended to create a serious work. Of course, a quick Google search has confirmed that the creators genuinely intended to create a good film. This fact makes C Me Dance all the funnier.Despite my one-star rating, I do highly recommend that you buy this film. (I'd like to see Greg Robbins make enough money to create another one of these masterpieces.) Watch C Me Dance with a group of friends and laugh out loud at one ridiculous situation after another.[If you don't believe that this film is as bad as I say, look online for the trailer.

The Re-Nu Sensitive does such a lousy job of cleaning them that all kinds of debris are left, plus the solution itself stings and dries my eyes when I put the lenses in. Stay away from this stuff! The only ""sensitive"" thing about it is that it goes easy on dirt and lets it stay on your lenses!",44150

0,This Book is Not Worth the Read,"A cat is killed in the opening scene for food, yet Denzel is kind to a rat, who he feeds some of the cat meat to. It made me know right away that I wasn't going to like this. The desert town he goes to is too old western cowboy. The world is desolate now, yet everyone still has stylish sunglasses? And where do they get the gas to power their cars and even motorcycles? The ""twist"" didn't gel with the rest of the movie. I only gave 2 stars instead of one because the fight and action sequences were well shot and edited along with the cinematography.SPOILER ALERTAt least the intentions of Gary Oldman's character of wanting to use the bible to control the masses was a breath of fresh air because it rings true to how most fanatical Christians were... still are. And if the bible is what caused the war that lead to the apocolypse, how then can the last surviving copy help and save the rest of mankind? Too many holes in the story.",47369

I tried this a couple times but our senior cat was not deterred at all.He was urinating repeatedly in one spot in our foyer. What worked for us: We purchased two grass-like entry mats and blocked his way into the area using those. He doesn't like the texture on his paws. Plus, we added Precious Cat Litter Attractant to his litter boxes. I just sprinkled about 1/4 cup in each box and mixed it in slightly. I had to put him in the box the first time I added it but he went right away and soon the problem stopped altogether.",7148
0,too long,I thought this book was very enlightening and practical. The concepts made a lot of sense and i believe they would help any marriage out of the gutter or a good one get better. I thought that the book was much too long for the content covered. It gets very repetitous and I found myself skipping through pages that seemed to be exactly like the previous ones. It kind of becomes like an extended attempt in trying to prove his theory. I believe the theory but it didn't take over 300 pages to get there. Chapter one pretty much did it.,6784

Photographs and diagrams are clear - if a bit small. Instructions are easy to follow.Some may find the Haynes physically easier to use with its hard cover and more compact format than a Clymer.I prefer the Clymer for its layout and its diagrams and photographs. There are simply more of them.It is a great manual for the price. If you can afford it - get both manuals.",15567

I would give the overall movie 3 stars, but since I thought (the first time I saw it) it was one of the scariest movies I've ever seen, I bumped it up to a four. It's kind of like the counter to The Ring. The Ring overall was a much better movie, but when ""the big scare"" in The Ring was revealed, I thought it was really disappointing. I did see DF in the theatre first and The Ring on DVD, so that may have had an effect on the comparative scaryness factor of the two movies.",38591

I like both books, but now I'm talking about this one.The paragraph/semi-narrative style is great for learning when you're away from your instrument. But you'll probably find yourself wishing you had your bass right next to you to try out something new you learned.I'm a beginner to the bass, but not a beginner to music. Still, I sing and singers (especially sopranos like me) are notoriously lacking in knowledge of music theory. So I love finding out about some of the hows and whys behind the whats.

The manouverability is rediculous. The parent cup holder is not in a workable spot if you put your diaper bag on the handlebar. Folding it is very difficult unless you're a houdini.

1,The theory of relativity of Moller,"In spite of being an old textbook, published originally in 1952, this is one of the best introductory textbooks to both special and general relativity. It is far superior than many textbooks on the topic that have been published later. This is one of the five textbooks on special relativity cited by Steven Weinberg in his classic ""Gravitation and Cosmology"". The author achieves a balance between clarity and completness that is missing in many other textbooks. For instance equations for the Lorentz transformations, velocity and force transformations are given in tridimensional notation and proved in simple terms. I recommend this textbook as one of the best introductions to Special Relativity. On the other hand, the part of the book discussing general relativity is a little outdated even tough correct.",26312

I was happy to find this and it smelled ok when I first got it. However, once I put it on it smelled like old lady perfume and it was so STICKY! It felt like I had put honey under my arms. I really wanted to love this but I guess I'll have to keep looking for a natural deodorant that has a powder texture to it with a better smell.",19445
1,Amazing can be intimidating,Its big. Bigger than you will expect it to be more than likely. I use it for anal so I was tempted to return it because me and my wife both tought it was too big.

1,I LOVE this show!,"As someone else had posted start this series at season one, episode one. It is like most other series they build on and continue from the previous episode/season. You really do have to start from the beginning. But after one show it will draw you in, and before you know if you'll be done watching all of season one, and onto two. As far as I know there are 4 seasons, with season 4 not out on dvd as of 3/7/11. Even my boyfriend loves this show, and he is against drugs- he usually won't watch anything with alot of drugs in it. At least give it a chance, and if you end up not liking it, I would be VERY surprised. I can't get enough, and don't think you will be able to either!",29508

There are times when you just need an inexpensive set of headphones, but you don't want junk, and these are a good choice for that.They have good low end response, although they are a little weaker on the high end. They are comfortable to wear, and the folding feature is nice. I do wish there was a more elegant way to deal with the cord when they are folded up, but it doesn't come with any sort of cord management.They come with a cloth bag and 2 adapters, a 1/4"" to minijack adapter, and a jack that appears to be 2 mono minijacks to a single stereo minijack.If you are looking for a set of headphones that are reasonable quality for a good price, these might be for you...",45597

We glued that back on and now the neck is falling off. I didn't expect a guitar ready for the big stage, but I expected it to be playable and fun. It breaks my heart because it looks so great.

I tried putting it in a warm dryer and reshaping and rehanging it, and that lasted about a day. Unless you plan on replacing this every two or three months, I would suggest looking for something else. Maybe the more expensive ones work better.Update on Jan. 8, 2009The company sent me a replacement, and it didn't last very long either. I would look further.",44913

1,Better than the Original Manga: Crying Freeman in Movie!,"Contrary to the manga, Crying Freeman (the movie) offers a well articulated story on top of manga-like action. The story is about love and honor. Special attention was brought to its aesthetic aspect, which make it a pleasure to watch. The movie also features a John Woo style scene towards the end. Violence is never imposed on the viewer for the sake of violence but rather as a logical consequence of the unfolding story. In a word, the movie is nothing like the manga, and makes much more sense. To those who liked the manga: you will love the movie!",14678

0,It depends on how you use them.,"I purchased these headphones 3 days ago and had a mixed experience. I was hoping to connect them to my AV system to be able to listen to both my television and my CD player. The results with the CD player were horrible. Even in the same room, one channel would drop out, then come back depending how I held my head. If I raised my arm, I would lose a channel. These headphones don't appear to be ready for CD players yet.On the other hand, when I use them to listen to my television, the result is satisfactory. I suspect the same drop outs exist, but they are not nearly as noticable with dialog as they are with music. Since I primarily bought them to listen to the TV, I plan to keep them. The sound isn't as good as wired headphones, but they work well enough throughout my house.",22057

The motor burned out after only two months of nightly use, which is simply unacceptable at the price. Also unacceptable is the fact that the parts are cheaply made, flimsy plastic. This fan is strong enough to blow your hair off at high speed, but the cheap legs will break far too easily and the motor won't last. Buy something else.",23790

1,a different perspective,"If you've ever heard of Harry Bennett, you've heard he was a violent thug, an enforcer, a spy for Henry Ford. He may well have been all that others have said about him. But he apparently did not see himself that way, or he preferred to keep that part of his personality hidden.This book is Harry's sanitized version of his life with Ford. It's interesting, filled with anecdotes and opinions about the Ford family and the Ford Motor Company.You might like to read other books about Ford and his company and compare impressions. I'm glad I read Harry's remembrances. It adds spice to an already fascinating story.For contrast you might like, ""The Ford Hunger March"", by Maurice Sugar or ""Brother Bill McKie-Building the Union at Ford"", by Phillip Bonosky orfor a complete story, ""Fords-An American Epic"" by Peter Collier & David Horowitz",11139

0,So Much Hype!,"I didn't like the pre-2008 edition of this book for many reasons. First, it was replete with with ""pep talk,"" which was time-consuming to read and irrelevant to the goal of mastering crucial SAT test-taking skills. Second, it was thin on substance, which may be why the author had to use extra-large fonts to fill up the pages. The few SAT test taking strategies, designed for the so-called ""2400 Club"" members, were nothing you cannot find in most quality SAT prep books. Also, with the pre-2008 edition, the lay-out was so messy that it was actually hard to follow. Finally, having just coached my daughter for the January SAT (in which she scored perfect SAT scores), I think it's misleading to insinuate that one could earn perfect scores on the SAT simply by using this one workbook. From my perspective, nothing short of disciplined work, relentless practice, and a positive mind-set would achieve that. Which is why I have sold this book and, thanks to the hype, at a good price!",13921

The books drags on with Liir the wimp for the first three quarters and then suddenly he's Superman? Oh, and let's throw in a little confused sexuality. Was that really necessary. What I think we have is a poor attempt at providing the middle leg in the Witch (no, not Which) Trilogy. I don't want to give it away but the entire plot leaves more questions than it answers. I have to say that if you read the last sentence first you will get ""it"" and you can then be thankful for not having wasted six hours of your life.",3783

The rebel turned sheriff of a sleepy little town who finally gets the girl he's loved for a long time. This book is great.",18161

To those who do not believe in this concept, the book is ridiculous. To those who do believe in the Biblical story, particularly those who believe literally, the story is offensive.

That is how I know if she has problems in her life. This book is about what had happened in her girl culture. This book made me feel like laughing when it talked about Cleo picking her nose and not eating properly. This book made me sad when she didn't meet any friends and it also made me sad when she didn't like her new house.

0,Do not believe the hype,"Here's a simple review without spoilers""Not as advertised""- Gameplay is limited. It's hard to change gameplay style (economic, military, religious) once the game picks it for you.- Evolving creature (multiple legs, etc) doesn't change the creature aside from the cool/cute value.- The space stage is repetitive. In-game automated preventative devices did not act without your intervention.- End game reward becomes useless after a point.- DRM is draconian. You are renting the game, not buying it.- Expansion packs will provide needed upgrades (more parts, enhanced gameplay) to improve playability.Despite same of the amusing aspects of the game, I returned it. It is not the game that was hyped over the last 2 years. It's a dumbed-down version of the hyped one. I believe some of the glitz was pushed to expansion packs.",11801

Some enjoyed as much as we do, others took offense.

1,For the true hip hop fans,"I went into this movie hoping to have a good Dave Chappelle laugh and enjoy some good music. What I got was a wonderful cross section of hip hop, from the lyricists to the musicians to the revolutionaries to the divas. The performances are genuine and as such are sometimes chaotic. Energy at such a high level doesn't always flow smoothly. But the performances show the lie that hip hop is all about sampling beats, violence and degradation of women. Dave is a great host, showing that he is a true entertainer while at the same time an ambassador to people of differing backgrounds. Lastly, the performances of Jill Scott, Erika Badu, and Lauren Hill brought this man to tears. Exceptional!",5581

I think she was really trying to pursuade the reader to take a careful look at out how we are destroying our ecosystem. At times, it gets a little to 'environment' for my taste. I gave the book a solid 4 stars because it is a great read, but it is not her best work. I my opinion, the posion wood bible is still her best novel ever.",18824

Of all the ways that someone can go back in time, he gets hit by a car, and then needs to get hit by another car to go forward again. Come on people, surely you have more of an imagination than that. Almost 200 Rod Serling episodes and this is the best you can do.Lousy Hollywood producers.",2253
1,New gardeners delight,I absolutely love this book. I first found it at the local library and Had to Have It! I find two drawbacks and they are that the 'pests' and diseases aren't defined enough for the novice gardener. The 'pests' are pictured in black and white while the diseases are written only. This is a great gift for a new gardener.,34938

1,Must Have for kids and grandkids,"My folks read this to me...again and again. I then did the same for my kids. Now, I'm getting copies for them to read to my grand-kids.I can recite, by memory, Little Orphan Annie, forty-five years after I learned it. The Old Swimmin' Hole still brings tears to my eyes. There are so many classic poems for kids. They are all rhyming poems, and the alliteration is great for kids, too.There is a least one poem/illustration that is, by today's standards, racially insensitive. I simply skipped it until my kids were a bit older, and then we used it as a teachable moment regarding the changes in society re race and racism.If you're going to have grand-kids, GET THIS BOOK!",24746

1,Great kitchen radio,"I had bought a Sony under the cabinet radio for the kitchen and the reception was terrible. I returned it and bought the Sangean radio. The reception is great. I use the radio for mostly listening to talk radio and it meets all my needs. The kids really like the radio because it has RDS, which allows them to see the name of the artist for each song. A few cons would be the single speaker makes listening to music ok, but certainly not equivalent to a two speaker stereo. The remote only works if you are in front of the radio. My kitchen table is off the left and I need to get up and move to use the remote. All said, I am very happy with this purchase and would recommend it to others.",28225

[The book discusses] the media driven view that all dietary fats are harmful to health. This is not true. Some are (excess saturated fats, trans/hydrogenated fats.) but the health benefits of the good fats/essential fatty acids are not mentioned. I suggest picking up Udo Eramus' book ""Fat's that Heal, Fat's that kill"" and put the two books together to complete the picture between carbs. and fats. Eskimo's get 50-60% of their calories from fats (rich in omega 3/6) oils and don't get heart disease. The view [of this book] is still too skewed for me to justify this book.",43894

But this magnifier was so nasty that it prompted me to write my first review.This magnifier minds me of the 70s made-in-China junk. Horrid quality...distorted plastic lens and the plastic handle's battery cover comes off like...a cheap 70's made-in-China junk. The old ""made-in-China"" looking box it comes in has magified view of map of China showing Shanghai...This is not a Duro-Med brand magnifier but ""Hori"" brand (or some similar sounding name...I've returned the darn thing already for refund.) This is a magnifier you might find in some corner alley hole-in-the-wall store in China for $1 and even then it'd be worthless junk not fit for a child's toy.I have no clue what magnifier the previous reviewer gave 5 stars but it couldn't have been the same one I received.

0,Not A Good Buy,"First, this is indeed a Kirov production so why the front cover says Bolshoi is weird.

The performances aren't that good overall and the whole thing is not up to Kirov standards.",1587
0,Hardly as extensive as one would hope,"I was looking for a good resource to find fight scenes, and after a quick internet search this was the first book to come up. When I found a hard copy my first impression was how light and thin the book was, and this was the first warning that this book wasn't going to be nearly as in-depth as I expected. So I opened it up and looked at the contents, and I was right. For a book that claims to have scenes from classical to contemporary, it seems to have a lot of classical with one or two contemporary plays mixed in.The whole book seems to have a very reserved element about it, as if it's reluctant to expose the reader to violence. Not recommended for the serious crowd, but it probably works as a ""my first fight scene"" book.",44672
1,So far sooo good.,This is a very well made knife. Sharp and sturdy. I would definitely buy another one if I lost this one. I have not had any problems with the the locking mechanism as some people have suggested or showed videos of. They must have a received a defect or broke it themselves. I carry it in my pocket everyday and the only thing I don't like much is the fact that it has an open spine along the top of the handle/case -- so pocket lint collects in it and on the blade.**EDIT: 11/16/11I still carry it with me nearly everyday. I use it pretty much everyday day as well(light duty)but its still sharp and intact.,6273

In fact, it's hideous. Granted, for such a young band, their music is polished, but it nonetheless sounds exactly like what it is--the creation of three pre-pubescent boys from the midwest. The mature listener cannot relate to the schmaltzy lyrics, and the catchy tunes become more irritating than musical after the first listen.

1,One of the best books I've ever read!,"This book really surprised me. This book is fantastic on every level. It is so good that I don't think I can list why without writing a book of my own.I will tell you this. I expected a light, fluffy romance novel. Maybe even a little corny. I only read it because I thought it might be mildly entertaining and my daughter was reading it.I couldn't have been more wrong on all counts. This book far exceeded all of my expectations. This book is deep, well written, has an incredible theme, does not hide the realities of human nature or underestimate human potential for both good and evil.BTW, my daughter (mid-teens) loved it too. But, I would not recommend this book for pre-teens, or even emotionally immature teens. This book deals with some very harsh topics...something else I didn't expect.I hope they make a movie some day. So, I can tell everyone the book was better. :-)Great book!",29774

The local indians are raiding the town, afraid that with it authorities will impose their will on them. The townspeople are left with nothing but the church and mountain foraging. Quinn enters this imbroglio, at first mistaken for a priest, and later as a leader attempting to mediate. There is a compelling indian chief that also wants peace, but Quinn's overtures fail, much at the responsibility of angry indians, including a bitter metis, Bronson. Violence ensues.The realism is stark and moving. It is a pity this is not more widely available.Warmly recommended.",39661
1,Ambitious story of a Pittsburgh steel family,"Marcia Davenpot, a music critic, often chose musical themes as subjects for her novels. That's not the case here in this huge (over 600 pages), ambitious, and vividly written novel that is concerned with a Pittsburgh industrial family over the course of about 70 years. Mary, the ""Irish peasant girl from Shantytown"" is the main character, and she's wonderfully drawn by Davenport. Her goal in life is to hold the Scott family together: ""she was hellbent that nothing should ever happen to reflect on this family,"" says Paul, the head of the family and the man she's loved (and who has loved her back) but wouldn't marry, feeling his real love was his steel mill. The book spans a very large canvas from Pittsburgh to Eastern Europe and a large cast of characters; Davenport's skill at manipulating events and people is on full display in this novel, and despite its length the book is interesting from cover to cover.",16608

I was truly disappointed that my husband was unable to finish the movie due to the manufacturer's inability to deliver a whole copy. This movie is a true story of racial tension and struggle in southern Georigia. It is a moving story that would have been wonderful to see a second time, but I guess that is not meant to be.

This latter consideration is extremely helpful when we leave the domain of canned examples and venture forth into the real world.I suspect that when a team of authors assembles a text, as in this case, we get the benefit of vertical expertise but miss out on the encapsulated/synthesized wisdom that a single author conveys as he/she walks us through a detailed technology tool.After 7 chapters in this text I switched to Microsoft Press': ""SQL Server 2005 Integration Services, Step by Step"" - for which I have written a more favorable Amazon review.",29992

I haven't had any side effects yet, but I am on a really low fat diet. I make sure I don't eat any high fat, so as not to experience any of the side effects of Alli when eating more than 15 grams of fat. At the beginning of this diet I only lost two pounds the first month and then I began talking Alli. This month I lost four pounds and that is a lot for me.

0,good as long as strap holds up,Have had two. First the strap broke and it was as cheap to buy a new watch as the strap. The second one which was only 6 months old had the plastic break where the screw holds the strap. The watch was not abused. Don't even have a clue as to what caused the plastic to break since there was no traumatic event that would have caused it. I liked how light and thin the watch is but will not buy another . Will go buy a $5 watch somewhere. I had one that lasted me for years. Casio needs to improve its quality with regards to the strap and how it is held on.,35507
0,Disappointing.,"In a word - disappointing. The usual Woody Allen character appears again with the usual dialog. This time the actor is directed to imitate Woody because Woody would be too old to play the part. While the cinematography of Paris was excellent and the story line intriguing at times, the Woody character has become such a cliché that it needs to be left behind in his future movies.",22553

1,A Great Read - You'll Enjoy!,"""Lord of the vampires"" is the last of the trilogy of ""The Diaries of the Family Dracul"". The first book is ""Covenant With the Vampire"" and the second is ""Children of the Vampire. The reason I mentioned the other novels is because they really should be read before reading this one. All are highly engrossing and interesting. How Ms Kalogridis thought up all this is beyond me - but she is obviously talented. Although all the books are wonderful reads - be prepared - there are strange situations in the books - among them are incest and homosexuality. The books don't go into to much ""intimate"" details on these subjects - and they're not something that carries on into the complete story. So the squeamish should tolerate them just fine. Therefore, I would advise anyone who likes vampire novels to purchase all three of them.",29799

0,"Not About the Holidays, Poorly Written, Waste of Talent","I bought this dvd because I was looking for a movie about the Thanksgiving spirit. While the events depicted in the movie occur at that time of year, the movie itself has nothing to do with the holiday. I am frankly startled to note I am the first person to write a bad review for this movie. I like James Garner and Julie Andrews, so I thought how bad could it be? Well, I think they did their parts, but the plot and the script writing were so incredibly bad, I guess they did the best they could do with what they had. I didn't feel the movie explored in depth any of the following topics: Alzheimers, being the spouse or family member of someone with Alzheimers, widowhood, winter romance (ha ha), or even romance. The topic material had a lot of potential, but they just didn't go anywhere with it. To sum it up, that's two hours of my life I'll never get back.",35871

He is one of a handful of contemporary novelists and short story writers who never let me down, who are consistently intelligent, original, thoughtful. And entertaining. ""The Speed of Light"" is, for me, his best, most accomplished piece of writing. The story may be about young adolescents, but the novel's natural audience is adults, and why it was marketed as young adult literature is beyond me. In point of fact, young adults would miss much of the humor and irony of the story. No, this is a book for grownups who have lived enough life to be able to reflect on the innocence and idiocies of childhood. Story aside, Carlson's use of language is so impressive, so evocative, so precise. This is a book I will read once every year of my life and, I'm sure, find something new each time to relish.",22999

Napoleon responds to these situations as if in a drug induced stupor. In this film his loser character/attitude prevails when faced with conflict; hence, his state of stupor is glorified to heroism which is probably why a few teen's and young adults think that it's cool to mimic Napoleon's character.There are some amusing scenes.

This absurd advice is so trivial and in many cases not even accurate that unless you're a total money moron it won't show you anything you haven't heard or read elsewhere. Many women's web sites give far better advice that you can actually use. Suze is the queen of infomercials so why doesn't she offer a money back guarantee?

1,literature should be art.,"Ondaatje is a fine writer. I have read many negative reviews here about the work being ""artsy farsty""; literature is an art. The English Patient has such beautiful imagery, I can't understand how you could be bored- unless you are not a literature reader. I think this attitude is perhaps derived from the movies success. Ondaatje's brillance really comes through in the details, his original descriptions. He has the ability to make prose sound like poetry. In many passages you can here the poetic quality clearly, this is the writing only a great writer could do. maybe it is not his best story, but it is far from bad. for those who said it was boring, what literature do you like",29631

The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because some of the ends arrived a little bit bent. Other than that, it's a good, cheap, curtain rod.",4409

As far as production goes this book is pretty good. The sound effects are nicely done and some of the actors play their roll well. Waht fails for me is the story. I mean folks its been done before over and over and over and over again. Of course there is the added annoyance of the kid's voice and that one cheap sexual encounter. Add the abrupt ending and what do you have left? An audiobook full of great sound and sound effects and nothing much else. If you want something a bit more better, try the audio play version of Pet sematary done by the BBC; that one is much better and a whole lot more scarier then this mess. My copy ended up in the garbage after all.",9706
0,TOSSED IN TRANSLATION,"I have little doubt this film depicts what it was like to be an American overseas during 9/11. Although it is never mentioned there seems to be no other reason for the constant inability to leave a Tokyo hotel, spend endless hours watching the tv, allow the camera to repeatedly capture the sight of Tokyo skyscrapers. It so conveys the feeling of being stuck somewhere that I felt increasing impatience and a bit of anxiety watching it. As it started, I was laughing with abandon at Bill Murray's culture clash with the Japaneese, but this initial amusement soon became restless as the culture of Japan is never seen as anything but a stereotype. Scarlett Johansson is sweet but dull as Murray's interest and Murray's character is soon diminished to a meaningless person as the director steers us into what must be her expression of 9/11. Thanks but no thanks. I have my own impressions.",7856

When Chiang, Mountbatten, and Roosevelt finally decided to dump Stillwell, Wedemeyer got one of his jobs. Wedemeyer became Chiang's chief of staff. Wedemeyer was convinced that the Chicoms weren't going to be a good thing for China, but was unable to convince Truman of that before we had helped them into power. We also kind of screwed up Vietnam about then. We did do the right thing in Greece though. Wedemeyer was more of a politician than Stillwell (read his book too).

The realistic flight mode is a joke. The intent is there, the game play seems to be OK. But the game itself is to complex. Not enough keyboard commands, not enough realistic flight modes. I recommend Longbow 2 still an awesome game, realism is there, and Apache Havoc for gameplay. Hard core sim players PLEASE overlook Gunship. Save your money!",48794

He is a wimp; he is a coward; he is a neocommunist.He is also an excellent, excellent writer.Setting Douthat's politics aside (because, in actuality, Privilege is not overwhelmingly political), let us focus on what matters most about book reviews: the prose here is sharp; the observations compelling; and the message relevant and provocative.

1,When a hammer won't do.,"The Senco palm nailer provides the ideal solution in situations where a regular old hammer comes up short. I first purchased this nailer when a remodeling project required 8d nails be driven under an existing roof line that provided less than 7 inches of vertical clearance. Clearly not a hammer job. I've driven 8d - 16d nails with roughly equal success, although the smaller nails will occassionally bend if the drive angle is not consistantly maintained. If you can't tolorate an occassional bent nail, I've found using stick nails (purchased for my Porter Cable F350 nail gun) solves the problem. Although I originally pruchased the palm nailer for use in difficult-to-reach locations, I've grown to using it more in situations where convential tools would also work. It's light-weight (unlike conventional nail guns), drives a 16d nail in less than 2 seconds, and, at the end of a remodeling day, doesn't send me home with a sore wrist and arm. All in all, a very good investment.",38871

Queen is no longer, folks.As for the cd, it is so-so at best. Rodgers is an excellent vocalist, just not doing Queen songs!

I gave up at that point - it just wasn't worth the struggle.I've crocheted for many years, and it is rare that I find a pattern that stumps me so completely.

I'm patiently waiting for volume 2 but it doesnt appear to be for sale in the USA.",28656
1,I love these!!,I can no longer find these in the grocery store and am forced to buy them on line. They are just fabulous to keep in the car and I am never out of them. Wish I had invented them. They stay much more moist than the other dispensing pack the manufacturer is now forcing upon us.,17952
0,complete junk,I purchased this because it was recommended ... when I purchased my new digital camera (smart media cards). Half the time my computer won't recognize it and the other half of the time it gives me blue screen errors. I used sandisk for my old camera with compact flash cards and never had a problem. This is a terrible product and cost twice as much as my old compact flash reader.Don't buy it.,24665
0,Good if you're just trying to get a decent score for an OK school,"If you want 600+, forget it. But if you are a complete idiot, esp when it comes to Math, then this book is for you. I must admit, the explanations provided are very easy to understand. But All the questions (along with 1000+ questions and whatever from Princeton) are pathetically easy. Good enough to study so that you won't embarrass yourself with a 400. Try Kaplan 800 or the Manhattan GMAT and don't waste your money here, esp if you are going for and top b-school out there (and I'm not even talking about Ivy Leagues places ...).",49067

1,Flashy in hot water again,"Flashman gets roped/coerced into masquerading as a Danish prince and the action gets furious from there. Written in the first person, Flashman is brutally honest about himself and others, and waxes philosophical more often than he should, but then this is part of his ""autobiography,"" take it or leave it. A good deal of human nature can be learned from him.I think many of us will live vicariously in Flashman's reluctant adventures, especially the erotic episodes. Being a 19th Century Anglophile, I enjoy the History, phrases and terms used then, as accurately described by Fraser. I am most impressed at his research for the background and settings used. For a while, I wasn't sure whether Flashman had been a real person.Strongly suggest that the reader read the Flashman series in order, starting with the first one, Flashman: 1839-1842, to get the most out of the series. If you are really into it, read ""Tom Brown's Schooldays"" first.",33816

0,Two Good Songs,"It breaks my heart when heavyweights fail to deliver. We had pinned our hopes on Noel and Liam. Indeed, I thought they might represent the most brilliant part of the future of rock and roll. But this is their worst album, with only two good songs, Go Let It Out and Who Feels Love. It's all the more heartbreaking that these two tracks are so fine, because it suggests what Oasis might have been. Maybe if their next album is good it can salvage their place in the pantheon. But we'd been literally aching for THIS one. Their output since the magnificent What's The Story now seems to prove that they can't consistently deliver. And that's the difference between artists of historic proportions, and those who had a good album or two.",17948

I received the Bancroft Strategy as a birthday present from my daughter who takes gift-giving very personally, so I had to keep it. The only reason I give it 2 Stars is because I'm still reading it, waiting for two DeMille books I ordered to arrive. The stuff in this book is just plain D U M B.

Then I tried to put the pictures on the computer and all I got was 11 pictures of rainbows, every picture blurred so bad they were just streaks of colored light - the quality is HORRIBLE, you can hardly make out what the pcture is supposed to be of - this was even the case when I took a picture (and I placed the camera on a bookshelf to avoid it moving while taking the picture).The software is a problem to install and use. When I tried to upload the pictures they remain on the camera so you can easily fill it up and not be able to use.overall this was a huge disappointment, save your money and avoid this agrevating product.",33477

0,far from convincing or realistic,"This book is another yet reformulation and compilation of various systems' knowledge geared to the current market and desires. A little analysis of the techniques depicted shows them to be as dangerous (to the executor, not the assailant) as the ""bad"" techniques or interpretationns he criticises. So it's dangerous for those who don't know anything about martial arts, and useless for those who do know something. While it's an ingenious and alluring idea/system he proposes, and although I'm sure Dillman himself is a dangerous man, this book looks like being part of a commercial enterprise rather than a useful technical manual.",3129

Gradually parts of the dead girl's life and death are revealed and the ghost makes appearances in the form of a severed hand! Very creepy, but great. I gave it 4 stars since I wanted more to the end, I felt it stopped short.",14116
1,Surprisingly good,"To preface this review...I am not much of an action fan, and CERTAINLY not a sci-fi fan. It just isn't my choice of genre. So, when everyone praised this movie and all of its special effects, I was skeptical. I have to admit, though, the special effects blew me away from beginning to end, and the plot was surprisingly good too. I first saw this movie on VHS and immediately wanted it on DVD...the DVD definitely adds a lot of dimensions that you can't get the full effect of on VHS. I highly recommend this film for everyone, not just for sci-fi or action fanatics.",10310

She tells a much more colorful and drama-filled story than you could imagine. It felt like I was watching an R-rated film with lots of suspense, romance and drama. The sistahs and brothas are fun and full of entertainment.I enjoyed this novel even more than ""Scenes..."" because Reesy tells a more exciting story! She is full of laughs and imagery. Although the language was often too vulgar, I was able to accept it as part of her racy, risque, and raw character. Nevertheless, I loved Reesy even more for opening her heart and her mouth to give of herself even when it hurt.This is a good read about good friends who endure much love, pain, and ultimate joy!",31692

0,Crap,"First of all, battery died prematurely twice. Both times it was replaced by a reputable jewler. The third time the jewler told me the watch is dead because of water leakage into the housing. Indeed, there was rust inside the watch. Second of all, to replace the battery, you have to remove the pins from both straps - an incredible feat in itself, since the pins are very difficult to remove. Third, the wrist band is very stiff and uncomfortable. Fourth, the glass face is very reflective and it makes reading the display very difficult. Fifth, when you remove the watch and place it on any surface, chances are that you will depress the light switch on the side of the watch, and then if you don't notice it, you will drain the battery very fast. Final tally: don't buy this thing, spend your money on something better.",34980

The blue one is a super nice one also but so rare you would pay top dollar for one.Anyways, in conclusion to my experience with this watch is that so far its kept time consistent, i have not noticed any seconds added or slowed so to me seems to be excellent. the weight of it feels good and the size is perfect, not to mention Orange just happens to be one of my favorite colors.Buy it before the price starts to increase and they are all gone, you will not be disapointed.About amzon shipping, i ordered it on late Wednesday night, i wanted it as fast as possible so i paid an extra 8 dollars to have it by Friday.",507

Jeni Courtney is quite convincing as the lead role of Fiona, the newly motherless girl who goes to live with her grandparents (Mick Lally and Eileen Colgan)and becomes tangled up with a mystery when she finds out from her cousin Eammon (Richard Sheridan) that Jamie, her long lost brother who was said to have drowned years ago, has actually been seen floating about with seals!

The movie starts out so well but by the time it ends you have spent so much time trying to figure out who the killer is that you are not paying attention to subtle clues in the movie.

The only downside to this was the locking screw that holds the adjustable slide bar in place required so much force to hold it in place that it snapped off, leaving me with a non adjustable band width, which as it turns out is not too much of an issue. Forget all the thumb screw type link removers, the steel pins used on those always end up snapping off. These pliers will work and are well worth the money.",32449

(1250 watt microwave)The latches appear a little flimsy but they hold the top securely. It's easy to clean too.,35427

I'll be saving up for the real thing next Christmas.Wire runs through the legs and neck to keep the animal standing or posing in the desired position. Very good attention to detail.",37500
0,The Men who lied to us!!,This documentary was produced in 1988 By Nigel Turner and broadcast on Btitish TV. The station received many angry letters from viewers and from the British government who did an investigation and found out that most of the info on the documentary was not true or made up. Nigel Turner was forced to apologize and the film was not shown on British TV again. Then it was shown on The History Channel a few years ago and many angry letters were sent to the station including ones from former presidents Ford and Carter. The History Channel did their own investigation and found many errors in the documentary and made an apology and would not broadcast it again. Don't buy this dvd!!,46660

And sure, they're singing voices are not as big and full as Shirley Jones and Gordon MacRae, but again, still enjoyable to watch. It's also impressive to see the original roots of Hugh Jackman as a stage performer, to which he's EXCELLENT. Overall, worth the buy.",36839

Good thing this happened before Christmas and not on Christmas day because he is still in tears and I would not have liked to see our son so sad on Christmas day over a toy dissapointment.",42312

On this album at least he has a certain simple, unschooled feel-- understandable given his breaking new ground as an early countertenor. His power of expression is amazing; the singing ranges from vulnerable melancholia to joyous. Really it's refreshingly different after listening to a lot of technically excellent but cold singers (including more contemporary countertenor voices).",49736

However it was quite a let down. It was virtually void of the technical information Patrick usually provides and instead was filled with quips and comments. He spent too much time trying to be funny and or arrogant instead of providing his usual first class reviews. Editing left a lot to be desired as relevant pictures were often pages away from the text they supported. I have many of Patrick's books, but,I definitely would not recommend AR-15 Volume 2, sorry Patrick, you let us down with this one.",16968

0,Mingus on sedatives,"I never thought the music of Charles Mingus could be made to sound so unemotional. The performance is lifeless compared to any of the originals. Wynton Marsalis's latest effort to score a historical piece for an orchestra again fails. As with Coltrane's A Love Supreme, the original small group performance set the bar very high. That is not to say that any attempt to score these works is a guarenteed failure (see many recordings by the Mingus Big Band). The reason these works fail along with many other of Marsalis's are due to a lact of emotional fire, and originality (the artist must at least attempt to provide some personal statement to the piece, or all you can to is compare it to the original).",39339

0,You get what you pay for,"I moved to a new house last year and discovered my Cuisinart Coffeemaker wouldn't fit under the counter. With expenses mounting from the move, I went out and purchased this B&D model. The other reviewers were on target. It makes nothing but a mess when filling the water resevoir or just pouring a hot cup of coffee. I've learned to scoot the maker right to the edge of the sink to help avoid excess cleanup. It makes a mess! The brew basket requires some force to remove too. I finally learned to just carefully extract the used filter with grounds after exerting too much force a couple of times. With some force, the basket would pop out, sending wet grounds all over the place. I've finally given up on this coffee maker now that the non-stick surface has worn in several places. The plate is beginning to rust and I'm a little concerned about it rusting through and creating a fire/electrical hazard. It does make a decent cup of coffee but it's poorly designed and made.",26872

0,What's become of the Great American Songbook?,"This is a collection of the cream of the cream of the Great American Songbook by a rock'n'roll singer who contributes nothing at all to American culture. This rate #1 is to express my deep deception about the successful album series.Over exposed material which has been treated so many different ways by so many different vocalists with artistry should be treated respectfully.I am not a dictator but I would vote for a Law that would impose respect for some art expressions which represents the treasure of American culture.More than that, the series success reflects lack of understanding of the music context by people who should search for entertainment in a more valid and truer way.That's the deal: there is truth missing, there is a sensation of a money-make production. Mellow and arrangements, neglectable performances, lacking creativeness. To be completely forgotten some years ahead.",13886

After getting away from my inital impressions and coming back to this album with an open mind (and a better mood), I have come to really appreciate it as truly an amazing work. Definitely an evolution of the Haujobb sound and formula. The programing, sequencing and all the sound enginering is all simply mind blowing. A few of the songs that I really liked had some great uses of samples from movies very smoothly mixed into the sequences. While there is still a chorus here or there that isn't perfect, overall the songs really pound hard with an incredible intensity. You must listen to this album on a great car stereo or insanely loud in a club to fully appreciate the full depth of the compositions. Haujobb is arguably the one of the best electronic musicans producing today, right up there wih cEvin Key. If you like Haujobb, you won't be disapointed.",19094

0,Very Disappointing,"With anticipated glee, we bought this DVD series as a Christmas gift for our family; however, as we went through each of the 5 DVD's, we became increasingly disappointed in Schama's ""history."" So much of his presentation seems to be ""on the fringe"" and not central to the mainstream of the basic history of Britain. Also, as others have pointed out, Schama seems intent on presenting the ""gore"" of battles, tragedies, etc. He also seems fascinated with sex and the eccentric too much. We just felt that we were not getting the fullness of the basic story of Britain's history. It was very disappointing, and we would not recommend it.",16821

So, I wanted to see if she just had a bad night or was her voice really that bad. Well, after listening to ""Prelude"" which is suppose to be her best, I have concluded that her voice simply isn't up to a professional level. She sounds like my sister in the shower. It also sounds like her voice has been getting weaker and raspier as she has been getting older. I also agree with some of the others who have reviewed this singer, who have said that her best singing was at a much younger age. She should not be singing, especially live, until her she can change her voice for the better. It is simply not what anyone wants to hear.",12638

The 4th of July parade appears perfectly real because it was real - you couldn't have staged such realism. The rodeo scenes are beautifully terrifying. The humor is nice and easy, not over-the-top.

This book really should not even be offered by Amazon. This book is an infamous tool used by people who are into S&M to destroy their victims' free will. Reading this book is boring at best; but dangerous at worst. The protagonist IS a willing slave to Socrates...who uses physical abuse and mind control in order to destroy Dan's ability to think for himself. Perhaps Millman isn't aware that this is what happened to him. He should check himself in for some help. There are programs to help de-program victims of psychological torture.",16527

1,Yoga Nidra,"This was a great introduction to Yoga Nidra and an easy way to practice at home. What I especially liked was the music included, the sound effects such as water, animals, wind and the visualizations of these sound effects. It is a great adjunct to yoga practice through guided visualization, which I do not consider meditation, but still is very beneficial.",26746
1,Small and soft,"It's a small toy, very soft. But it's difficult to say the exact size is 8' or 10' because animal toy has no regular shape. It's well-made and the fur looks shining.

1,Excellent book!!,"""The Terminal Experiment"" was definately one of the best books I have ever read. Definately in the top 5.. I highly recommend this to any sci-fi fan, also to anyone who is interested in life after death issues. Very compelling book! I seriously could not put this book down. I read it in one night, and I'm probably going to read it again before I take it back to the library. Again, an excellent book",40708

0,Disappointing after Arthur & Aeron,"My 1st experience with Ms. Kennealy's writing was the ""Aeron"" trilogy, starting with The Copper Crown - truly excellent in my opinion, as was The ""Arthur"" trilogy. Suffice to say that Blackmantle was a severe disappointment. Athyn's development was disjointed, the obsession with revenge & torture unappealing and plot meandering. Morric appeared as a paper thin entity not a consort; the other characters also lacked depth enough to be anything but pale scenery. I found myself scanning, not reading, hoping vainly that the plot would improve. This book doesn't have much in common with its predecessors or the Keltia previously described /created. Skip this book and read Copper Crown or The Hawk's Gray Feather as an introduction to Keltia. Hopefully Ms. Kennealy will regain her previous focus in future ""Keltia"" installments and put aside the disappointing diatribe shown in Blackmantle.",14191
0,UltraViolet should be a crime,Its sad that a space reserved for reviews of a fantastic movie instead gets taken over by complaints about the crime that is Ultraviolet Digital Copy. UVDC is totally unacceptable. Warner Brothers should really offer customers some sort of recourse. It really should't be difficult. You buy a personal license when you buy a movie. You load the digital copy in iTunes. You then load the movie on your devices for personal use. That is the way it should be done. Its not difficult. Thanks so much for totally destroying whats supposed to be a very easy process. There is absolutely no excuse for UVDC.,35167
1,Turned out to be the best gift ever!,This was a gift for my niece who is teaching English as a second language to foreign students.

0,Bad product,I purchased this product because my family had the same & assummed I would receive the a good product. But it is no good. I have had it installed & have replaced the water valve & it still continues to run. Even the plumbers ae perplexed. Now it still continues to run & I will have to have a plumber out to try & find the problem. It probably will demand a water stopper replacement. And that means I will have replaced all the moving parts to get it to run properly. I am totally dissastified at this toilet. Maybe the price should have warned me not to purchase.,12458

0,Not a primary resource,"1. This is a very basic intro to the language, along elementary school lines.2. The grouping of topics is a nice feature.3. However, very clearly you will need an alternative resource for getting even basic concepts and phrases.4. Given the above limitations, certain topics, like telling time, are nice via the use of repetition.5. Most people looking for a crash course would be better suited to use an elementary text (online or book), ""in flight"" series for listening to and practising phrases for common situations, and a spoken dictionary (online like the Stazi version). After you get basic phrases/pronunciations, then use a phrase book, like lonely planet, to practice expanding practical conversation/language skills.",27025
0,Don't waste your money!,"This is one of the worst books I have ever read! Karin Goodwin is a Bret Easton Ellis wannabe, yet Bean is even less endearing and likable than all of his characters combined.

So if u're already a sizzla fan and you have an MP3 player, you can just rip the good tracks and fyah bun de rest...Lyrically and performance wise, this is typical Sizzla; musically, its more roots, reggae and some ole school riddims than contemporary dancehall like the 'rise to the occassion' release...",37201

1,Flawed . . . but worthwhile,"Overall, a well-written fantasy novel; refreshingly refrains from being either an ""epic"" or a ""romantic fantasy. Two flaws drag it down it somewhat. First is the narrative style, first person from the end of the story -- which we're told in the first few pages. (There are also an annoyingly large number of gloom-and-doom predictions that don't seem to quite bear themselves out, in the main body of the text.) Second is the overly graphic nature of the sex scenes; they don't match the tone of the rest of the novel, and I found them distracting.Don't let this stop you from reading the novel, though.",36730

1,"A sad story, but great for young readers","I first read this book in my English class as a 6th grader. The story is easy for kids to read, yet it doesn't seem like the ""young adult"" literature they often give to Middle School students.The story begins in Germany in the mid-1920's; the narrator is a German Christian and his buddy Friedrich is a German Jew. The narrator's family is poor and Friedrich's family is well-off, yet they are never selfish or vain. As the years pass it seems like their community is getting hostile toward Jewish people, and while the narrator doesn't seem to understand what's happening, it looks like his Jewish friend is probably more aware. Friedrich gets blamed for all sorts of things, and while they try to do the stuff kids do (see the chapters ""The Ball"" and ""The Pool"") he finds that Friedrich is seen more and more as an intruder than a customer.The last few chapters are more and more unpleasnat, the ending of which I will not reveal.",13666
1,let it grow on you,"i bought this cd for 5 bones used. i read the review here before buying also. the first spin of this album was not a good spin, after experiencing their last album. so after the first spin i let it sit in its case for awhile. then one day i tried to give it another chance. i still really couldn't grasp it, so i kept trying. eventually, it grew on me. there is so many elements in this cd. its a real big step compared to their last cd. the songs have the heavy distorted guitars like the last album, but more than that. the vocals are diffferent, at first kind of annoying. but, it will grow on you. just give it a few spins. i'm surprised this album never got attention, little long their last album. try it out.......",23488

1,"Better than other recent ones, but not classic Quick","I'm on the fence about this book. On one hand, I can't say I'm overly fond of the main male lead. The heroine is interesting and likeable, and I almost wish she'd end up with someone better (though the hero's family is quite interesting). The storyline has a good mix of mystery and action, if a little overly melodramatic. For those who like a bit more intrigue in their romance novels, this is a decent novel. Not the best by this author by a long shot, but not bad, either.And even though the author does a bit too much leading (as opposed to letting readers guess themselves or be utterly surprised) it's still a tidy, interesting plot. Pity about the hero, but still a solid novel. And if you like this one, I'd definitely read others by her (discounting the recent Arcane society ones).",43780
1,Great song selections!,"Great mastered sound -- not overdone. Full meaty bass sound!Vocal percussion is awesome, again very subtle and very well done.There are all these little nuances on this album -- I discover more of them each time I listen to them!

1,"Thomson's take on ""Big Sleep"" a convincing love-letter","David Thomson is arguably the most gifted writer on the cinema -- his ""Biogrpahical Dictionary of Film"" one of the subject's most valued reference guides. Singling out Howard Hawks' film version of Raymond Chandler's ""The Big Sleep"" as the most entertaining movie ever made is clearly a bold move on Thomson's part, but his arguments are steadfast and persuasive. Anyone choosing to read this work will emerge with a deeper understanding of the great detective film and an irresistable desire to see it again as soon as possible.",38327

1,Suffocatingly beautiful,"This Austin groups minimalistic, avant-country album crawled out years ago. I think it was winter of 2001 when I first started listening to their frightenly stark, soulful music. I fluctuated for a while, not knowing how to take them. They have all the ingredients to make great indie country sounds and something else, like something slipping off a track, an inevetiable accident about to happen, but you are looking forward to it happening. An amazing band, deserving. Resultingly I have come to them more and more lately. Typically I'll listen to holes in an album and then shelf it for a long time until it has healed, but KITW has managed to stay close at hand for some time. I guess a testament to their dark and sincerly beautiful work.",44457

With nearly half the heating elements of other toasters (including cheaper versions) this toaster takes 5 minutes to toast bread, 9 minutes to toast a bagel, and I am not brave enough to stick around and warm something frozen. It is a shame too, because this model has nice features such as the auto toast holders that keeps the toast in the middle. The dials have buttons to release the toast as well, but all for not as you will never find a need to pop the toast early with this machine. It will cost you more to rent space to this unit that it is worth. Better luck next time Toastmaster.",8488

0,needs improvement,"Apart from the needlessly large number of typos (""Undo"" for ""undue,"" ""wit"" for ""whit,"" are just a few of the more egregious examples) and such, there are just too many factual errors and problems with the story. It tries to be true to the era, 1893 Chicago, but the dialogue alternates between attempts at the period and all-too-modern phraseology. Are we to believe they said things like ""student ID cards"" in 1893? And references to the novels of HG Wells, who didn't begin his writing career until two years after the novel takes place, are plainly wrong. And there are the references to firearms, laboriously attempting to sound factual but again, just wrong. The author has someone shot with a Sharps 44 revolver, for example, but the Sharps 44 was a rifle. There are enough erors in the firearms references alone to make the entire novel's attempt at historicity to be suspect.Give it a pass, don't waste your time on this novel.",43837

Instead of going track by track i'll just tell you that the whole album is great with the possible exception of the song, 'ride.' It's a great song but at the same time I like the others on this album a little more. I can't wait to see him perform these songs live. I like the new lineup he has in his band too.

I was interested in the opening questions- what is Justice and why should we be just? If one can gain material things and social prominence not being just and moreover being unjust, why do it? His answers aren't always filled with perspective, but they do open one's mind.

Strangely enough, I was able to ""bend it back"" in place and it seems to work fine (I checked it againtst my other levels) but I guess the fact that it is so long and light (the ""good"" things about it) are the same things which make it so weak. Anyway, I thought it was unusally inexpensive and that may explain it. I wouldn't [try to] return it as it arrived in good condition and it was my fault it bent - just be aware how gently you must use this tool.",3153
1,Whom the Gods Would Destroy,I'm taking an online history class and this book was on a list of books we could read for a book report. All I can say is that this book was a wonderful adventure on paper. I love Greek and Roman mythology and this book put depth and insight into those mythical characters. What a wonderful read and fun way to educate oneself in ancient civilizations. Richard Powell was a genius!,48356

1,I enjoyed this interesting look at Hank Aaron.,"Hank Aaron is one of the greatest men to ever live. To gain knowledge of his life in an entertaining way has been a light in my otherwise dark and dreary life. Also, I found the fact that there are other records which The Hammer set that he is more proud of interesting. As my personal compliment to Hank Aaron I won't mention the record or the man who some people can't resist mentioning when speaking of Hank Aaron. Hank Aaron would be a great man without the record, just not one who we remember. Afterall the record didn't make the man, the man made the record.",45513

Yeah, one of his song's may be catchy (""In Da Club"" is his only good spark) but after that he went all flip-flop. Seriously, not many people like this album (look at the mass of 1-star reviews!) and his new film (one of the worst of the worst) was a tradgic flop too!

Oh, so not only does his music suck, but he's also disrespectful!",18074
0,DO NOT BUY THIS CD,"If you want to hear ZZ Top, find their original LPs. The CDs that are available are an insult to the quality inspired musicianship the band once had.

1,from someone older than most,"At 37 and 225lbs a skateboard wasn't exactly my doctor's (or spouses) idea of fitness equipment, but I was tired of the gym (I'd already dropped 60 pounds). The first thing I had to do was to tighten the trucks (for obvious reasons) and get used to two new 'improvements' to skateboards in the fifteen years I've been off them, the lack of a skid-plate and the presence of upwards curves to the sides. The transition wasn't difficult at all, I've been cruising on it for about a month, hitting ramps and hopping from time-to-time and I've found it holds up from the parking lot to the church's fellowship hall floor. I will probably invest in larger wheels at some point, but for now it does everything I ask of it...",49421

1,Could use better booklet,"This is a nice recording of an interesting piece, although in this genre I think Steve Reich's Music for 18 Musicians is a more haunting, beautiful piece, mainly because it uses voices (although you can use voices on In C, but BoaC doesn't). To paraphrase Gertrude Stein, Riley did it first and Reich did it pretty. Riley actually recommends using 35 players, which is over twice what Bang on a Can has. The CD booklet is pretty spare, without any real information about the piece. However, the booklet points you to good website which has the score and Riley's commentary on the work, which is worth looking at...",11760

It is a boring movie and the characters were too wooden and not believable. There were no real 'good people', just victims of numerous bad decisions. The two cowboys were victims and later they turned their families into victims of adultery, pain, and betrayal.Many couples got up and left the theatre and it was only a quarter full at best even after the Academy Awards.

Though it helped to pass the time on a trip, the story wasn't very plausible, the characters were generally not very likable or smart and, in the end, I wasn't really rooting for anyone except the fact that I was finally finished. This is in no way harsh criticism of the author; the writing was more than adequate, it was the story I wasn't too fond of. I think this just isn't my genre. My mom is way into the movies shown on the ""Lifetime"" network; with a cheating husband, dying wife and bratty, rebelious teenage daughter this story seems tailor-made for the ""channel for women"".",42754

Is it the monsters who are conveniently locked behind the horizon with people running in the foreground among city destruction? Or the buildings which explode on contact? Is Tokyo a storage house for Nitro Glycerin? Why do skeletal girders on a contruction site explode when touched? Is it made of C-4? Why are the FX work in this movie praised? The original kept it simple and had to explain less. This movie explains outlandish creatures with even more outlandish and convoluted explanations.

0,Wow,"With a name like Dragonland, I was expecting some seriously epic power metal in the vein of Rhapsody, Luca Turilli, or anything else involving dragons and wicked solos. This was far from it, and its not that this is necessarily the worst music I have ever heard, it's just that they should be named something else, like 'Generic Nu-metal Band With Metal Street Cred.' I have no idea why anyone who likes metal, or power metal, would like this. It sounds like an angsty american nu-metal band, with not much tecnical prowess, from what I could gather. The songs are in a structured verse chorus verse form, and far from growling, high pitched singing, or anything metal, the vocals can only be classifued as annoying. I'm glad I only downloaded this bands album, because with Dragonland as their name, I was ready to go out and buy it outright. Don't bother with this if you think it is metal at all--",15128

The lid hinges look to last about ten uses.I put it together but am going to add some reinforcement at the corners, heavier hinges and a strap to prevent the lid from opening past 90 degrees.There isn't anything I can do about the limited capacity though except try to find an alternate use for this hamper so I can get another larger one.",2586

It's fine - nothing horrible, but the writing is awkward and the author or his co-writer mention dozens and dozens of times how incredibly attractive he had been as a woman. Which is fine and all, but really, it just seemed narcissistic after the first 3 or 4. Outside of that, very textbook tranny case, not a ton of insight or reflection, I only finished it out of loyalty and then gave it away.

0,What was the production team thinking?,"There were some really good fights on this event. I only wish they would have shown them in their entirety. For some reason the production team decided to run a graphic announcing the round number for the first fifteen seconds of each round - meaning you don't get to see the first fifteen second of the round. During many of the rounds you are missing opening punches and kicks, and in one case they are on the ground when the graphic goes away. However, and this is what sent me to my keyboard in a rage, there is a nineteen second TKO in one of the fights (I won't spoil and tell you which one). Basically what you see is the graphic announcing Round One for fifteen seconds with the commentators going crazy, then the graphic disappears and you see the ref running in to stop the fight.

0,THIS WRITER Is not knowledgeable in his chosen field,"Flipping through the compilation, I noted ddescriptions like The GAthering started as death metal (obviously wrong) or that now they are gothic black (even more wrong) and attributing stuff to bands like Sodom and Destruction which never were true. I suggest Martin P. sticks with what he knows best",35036
0,everything is NOT relative,"If you enjoy being told that everything is 'relative', and that there are no absolute Truths (except for the speed of light), then this book is for you.But if you believe that there is a difference between right and wrong, up and down, left and right, and you believe that the Sun revolves around the Earth (which it does), you might want to skip this book.Generally speaking, The Theory of Relativity is for people who believe in The Big Bang Theory, Dinosaurs, heliocentricity, and alien civilizations.",28174
1,I love the Firm!,"Stephanie Hucklebee is great in this strenth-building workout. It is divided into sections, upper body, lower body, and abs. You can do them separately or do them all together. I like doing the entire 45 minutes for a total body workout. Interspersed is cardio to keep your heart-rate up and burn calories. This is a great workout for everyone. :-)",27928
1,Everyone Must Read This Book,Harry Potter and the order of the phoenix is quite possibly J.K. Rowlings finest work yet I got the book at the Barns and Noble Promo party at midnight and finshid 45 hours later. I just could not stop reading it. When I got home I read for 12 hours straight! the book is wonderful all around. you get the classic harry potter adventure theme but this time there is more of an underlying plot that takes center stage in the end. People you think are doing one thing turn up to be doing quite the oppisite. and I think that adds a whole new level to Harry's magical world. I would definatly recomend this book to everyone.,40801

1,"For the price, who can complain.","For starters this is Copper Clad Aluminum NOT oxygen free 100% copper speaker wire, so if your looking for that, look elsewhere. But this stuff works great for less than audiophile/high power systems. There is a white line on one of the wires to indicate polarity, and gauge appears to be correct. I would recommend it.",30794
0,Great show but WARNING about DVD,"I love this show; it is clever, witty and a superbly crafted drama. Was very happy to see it on DVD with extras.HOWEVER be warned; the commentary contains spoilers! Imagine watching it with my partner, who is seeing it for the first time, only to hear the writer commentary drop the details of the ""Nancy storyline"" (so as not to spoil it futher) in an early episode of the season!!They really should have taken more care.Oh, and the sequencing of the second episode is completely wrong: they show part 1, 3, 2 then poart 4 so it really doesn't make sense!Sadly, very poor quality control for a great show.",39164

1,Great set of speakers,"I just happened to come across these Wharfedales when I was looking to replace my Polk audio satellite rear speakers. Typically, a set of bipolar speakers will run well over a few hundred dollars. Under $90 shipped was an absolute steal. These speakers sound great and give a lot of depth to my surround effects. I'm not sure how they would be as mains, probably plenty good for most, but as surrounds they are great. Hey are white and mounted on my wall, blend in well, they are not small, and are very solid, and surprisingly heavy. You all not regret this purchase.",12537
1,Bo and Pap make for a delightful read,"Bo Tully is a widower and the sheriff of Blight County, Idaho, as was his father. Bantim Scragg's and his sons are not known as law-abiding citizens so when a call comes in that they are reporting a body on their fence, it gets Tully's attention. When more victims are found, clearly not locals, the crime takes on a different focus.Patrick F. McManus is a well-known author of humorous outdoor adventures and a columnist. To his repertory, he now adds mystery writer. This is a delightful book in a different setting and interesting police work. Blight is a very small Idaho town where everyone knows everyone and the weather is an element not to be ignored. All the characters are wonderful, particularly Bo and his father, whom everyone calls ""Pap."" There is gentle humor, a good mystery and an unexpected ending. I liked that the mystery included both locals and outsiders. I've not read McManus before, but I shall look forward to reading him again.",9104

0,Dissapointing blu ray transfer,After seeing this series in the UK on HD I was dissapointed how poor the transfer to blu ray is compared to its showing on TV.Outside scenes do look good but scenes within the dollhouse and dark scenes look no better then upscaled SD and the overall colour/brightness/contrast appears to be too dull.Was also dissapointed that all extras are not in high definition.This is a good example of a show that looked better on TV than on blu ray,16892

I am so thankful to the people at Pamela's products for creating such a wonderful mix.,35459
1,Ethereal beauty written in words,"I just finished this book and I was almost wholly taken with its ethereal beauty. Our heroine, Razi Nolan, is a charming, ""venturesome"" girl who dies and is then left in ""the between"", neither alive nor truly gone. She exists in the present, but her yearning for past things are often brought to the forefront. She gets what she once wished for -immortality- (""One lifetime isn't enough to make all the trouble of which I'm capable"") and it's not quite what she had expected. The author writes of love and loss as one who has deeply experienced both of these things. This novel is especially heartbreaking and poignant with New Orleans as its locale. It's what Alice Hoffman would have written at the height of her talent if she were Southern.",19733

0,Seems pretty simplistic,"I bought this dictionary as a gift, choosing this one because of it's ""pocket"" size feature and being quite cheap.After receiving it, I was very surprised at how simplistic this book is, and is quite big for being ""pocket size"". I have a different brand of pocket dictionary of another foreign language that is quite small and use very religiously. This Tagalog one pales in comparison to what I used and what I was expecting.There are no pronuciation explanations, as I guess they assume you know how to pronounce the words already. But then again, reading Tagalog is pretty straightfoward, as opposed to trying to read, say, Chinese or Russian, where the characters are totally different. But you wouldn't even know where to accent the syllables either...A total for 88 pages with 44 pages devoted to each Tagalog - English, and English - Tagalog. I guess you get what you pay for. And I'm not paying this much for this book. I'm returning this one!",8587
0,The first season was so good. What happened?!,"After thoroughly enjoying the first season of ""The Magnificent Seven"", I eagerly proceeded to the second season. However, the second season is nowhere near as fun as the first. The first season episodes were made in the spirit of the good, old-fashioned western, with no deep issues to get in the way of the action. It was the sort of thing that the whole family could enjoy. Yet, for reasons that are entirely beyond me, in the second season, the writers decided to introduce a look of psychological issues: slavery, rape, infidelity, J.D.'s guilt after killing a man... Not to mention the fact that someone working on this series has a major axe to grind against Irish-Catholics. I am not surprised that the show was cancelled after this season. By the time I got to the end of it, I didn't want to watch any more either.This boxed set contains the 13 episodes of season two, packaged in slim-line cases. There are no special features included on the DVDs.",15630
0,Great Movie for the Pervert,"If you are a rapist, you will get off on this movie. If you like hurting children, this movie is one that you should add to your collection. If you have absolutely NO sense of humor, and like to sit through movies without any comic relief, then, trust me, this movie is for you.One of the first scenes is a four or under child being shot while the killer is talking to her in this soothing voice. Another scene has Viggo raping his wife, and she is responding avidly to this wild abuse.I bought this movie thinking that it would have a little bit of violence and some comic relief. I thought, that with names like Ed Harris and William Hurt, you can't lose. I lost.Let's not forget how the dumb sherrif just fell into the plot like a schmuck.Hint: Save your money. If you don't take my word for it, rent it before you buy...guaranteed...you won't buy it.",17157
0,Wasting Talent,It's too bad that Christina Aguilera is wasting her considerable talent on mediocre arrangements and superfluous vocal histrionics such as are displayed on this album. The sense of the songs are lost and musical line is sacrificed for vocal fireworks that are not in keeping with the style or mood. It's frustrating to hear such a good voice not being used to its maximum potential. I was very disappointed.,37842

1,What are we in for??????,"This is a must read to see what we are likely in for the next 4 years. Heaven help us. Molly, a native Texan, is probably the most honest satirical writer going. She chronicals Dubya's life from his Texas Air National Guard duty to his win in the Republican Primary for President. His corporate policy (oops I mean public policy) are the yarns of extreme right wing Republican lore. The reverse of Robin Hood. Of course the book is short, as are the notable accomplishments of the man who may be our next president.",45684

Also tried putting it in the dryer with a dryer sheet, that didn't help either. Bought this for my 6 year old that loves candy, hershey is her favorite, and loves bead pillows. Another complaint is the pillow was not as full as others I have bought. She doesn't use it and got an angry bird pillow for Christmas that does not smell and is fuller, so she uses that one.",30825

1,Classic Bluegrass,"This is one of those albums I grew up on. I was constantly finding myself humming, whistling, or wailing the songs from this CD, so I finally purchased it. It was definitely a trip down memory lane! Are these songs about deep or thought-provoking subjects? Nope. Is the artist a lyrical or musical genius? Not really. Do I still enjoy this music in a relaxed and reminiscing sort of way? Definitely! A must have if you're a fan of the classic banjo-picking goodness of bluegrass!",13419

0,Not Safe or Convenient,"This chair is a LOSER. The storage compartment door falls open and has room for nothing more than a small bib. The straps come loose and are very diffucult to adjust and clean. Food gets stuck in the crevices and the chair does not come apart so you can clean it(reminds me of the Prima Papa Highchair which also has too many crevices for food to get stuck in). The tray was tight against my son's stomach at 1 year old and he is a little fella. The hooks to detach the tray from the seat are made of soft plastic so they bend and break...the tray also gets stained easily from spaghetti sauce and fruit...very porous, cheap plastic. It is heavy and cumbersome, has no shoulder strap and I would never take it out of the house. The only good thing about this seat is that the tray is useful if you turn it upside down on the floor and put snacks on it.",36942

1,This is a nice case!,"I'm not sure what other people consider a ""good"" case, but this case does a great job protecting my H2. It's more protective than other cases I've owned. In the side pocket, I carry one spare set of batteries and a memory stick reader with no problems. I believe you could probably squeeze another set of batteries in there, as well. There is also a slim front pocket.It doesn't have enough room for a charger or other things, but if you charge your batteries at home (or in your room if you're on the road) then this shouldn't be a problem.I think it's a nice balance of max protection but without the burden of a hardshell case. I recommend!",49798
0,Tough to find a small radio these days....,"I had high hopes but this radio does not fill them. First, FM sensitivity, (the ability to pick up weak stations) seems worse than my cheapo Sony analog radio. Your lucky to get all the stations you are accustomed to. Alternate channel selectivity (the ability to sort out one station from another when they are close in frequency) was lousy. But the worst part of all is the FM noise floor. This radio when receiving a strong signal is not quiet. You can hear background hiss on a strong station even in MONO mode. So I either got a bad sample of this product or this is simply a very average performing radio. I would say not worth the price. not recommended.",3587

1,Exceptionally Well-Constructed Production,"Alicia Keys is simply a throwback to '70s soul and the retro-leaning ""If I Ain't Got You"" hints that. Her soulful, sultry vocals sound better than ever and are supported by inspired piano work, lush intrumentation and an ever-smooth beat. Keys has proven that she's the real deal. She's got a big, gutsy voice (powerful pipes) and delivers good messages to boot. Anything she touches is seductive and vertiginous. She was billed as being possessed by an ""old soul"" and that old soul has clearly uplifted her into one of the more refreshing R&B vocalists in recent times.",17270

1,Essential Dzogchen Reading,"Longchenpa was the great systematizer and transmitter of Dzogchen and his writings combine visionary poetic expositions of the nature of reality with lucid explanations and practical advice. He's one of the greatest Buddhist masters of all time. A true genius in every sense of the word. If you read his more esoteric books you will be astounded at the clarity and brilliance of his mind. This book is one of his most accessible texts -- it is essential for anyone practicing Dzogchen because it focuses on integrating the practice with ordinary daily life. The translation is especially accurate having been approved by Namkhai Norbu, one of the most eloquent and erudite contemporary Dzogchen teachers. It's a definite must-have for anyone interested in Tibetan Buddhism and in particular Nyingma philosophy and Dzogchen. It's also a great text for anyone trying to integrate their spirituality into daily life.",7244

Complained how the aiming was done wrong, how some of the missions were based on the first person template and a poorly done story.Thankfully I only watched that review after I bought it, played it, beat it, and was on my way to pick up all the 'side quests'. Thankfully.This game is a lot of fun to play and a story that did not let itself to be known until it was all over. The main character's voice, I felt, was all wrong but did not distract from the fun.During load sequences he talks about the story, the other characters you meet, amusing anecdotes, or just shows him wandering around or his guns. The timing was great since once his story was over, so was the loading time.Not the greatest game of all time, but it does happen to be a lot of fun.",45259

I have a computer that far exceeds the recommended minimums to run this game, and find the graphic lag to be way too much to handle, preventing one to enjoy this game. Most of the runs offered in this game are demos, and to get the full versions of some of the runs you have to go to different websites and pay more money for the full blown versions. I went to the Auran website, downloaded and installed service pack 1 for this game hoping it would improve the game play, but it didn't. I do not recommend this game, and would suggest those who enjoy train sims as much as I do wait until something better comes along.",17138
0,The Funniest Movie Ever... A comedic Masterpeice.,"This was the funniest movie ever. It just MAKES you laugh. You have to laugh. It doesn't have as many funny scenes as some comedies, but the scenes that are funny are UN-forgettable. The thing the makers of this movie did, was they brought on one funny joke after another, so while your busy laughing your head off and hitting your chair as hard as you can, you miss the next joke. It's great. Not only are the jokes as funny as hell, but at the same time there's a very interesting story to watch. This is a cult classic comedy. Better than any other Romantic comedy(Most of which are very predictable and boring). If any comedy can be called a masterpiece, than this is it.",45154

1,Radiohead and U2 wish they could create music this exciting.,"This criminally underrated Australian rock group is my all-time favorite band. Since 1981 they've released one great album after another, and Forget yourself is one of their best. Steve Kilbey's cool vocals, his interesting stream-of-consciousness lyrics, two exhilarating guitarists - Marty Willson-Piper, Peter Koppes - and Tim Powles, a drummer with great production skills, make for an all-round class act.However, this may not be the place to start as Forget Yourself is not one of their more accesible recordings. If you're new to The Church, I would suggest ""After Everything Now This"".But mark my words: sometime in the future Forget Yourself is going to be regarded as a MASTERPIECE. Of course, to some of us it already is!Also highly recommended: Gold Afternoon Fix, Hologram Of Ball, Uninvited Like The Clouds and Untitled # 23.THE CHURCH - the best band that ever existed.",7054

If you want to see the more accesible and entertaining of the two, see ""Tortilla Soup"" in which the Chinese culture is swapped for Hispanic-American culture.

It was still a wonderful movie and is worth watching for the cooking sequences alone. It was also interesting as a Chinese cultural study.",44919
1,Best home slushi machine ever,"I'm a huge slush-puppie fan and decided to order this little guy based on the reviews and price. Since receiving it a few days ago, I've been extremely satisfied. It's very simple to use and clean, and produces excellent shaved ice. I'm also quite surprised how fast it makes it. For the quality and price, you will not find better machine!Also, to make a slushi just like the blue raspberry slush-puppie, mix it with Berry Bonkers Hawaiian Punch (one of the harder flavors to find, but I get mine at Shaws). The very similar taste together with the great shaved ice makes it virtually indistinguishable. As a result, I couldn't be happier.",46962
1,Works fine -- great price,I sometimes need to connect my laptop to an HD TV using an HDMI cable but not often enough that I wanted to spend much money for one. I'm glad I listened to the other positive reviewers and went with it. I give it 4 stars for doing the job (tough to give something like this an Excellent rating just for working) and another star for it being a decent product at a great price.,10702

1,"Versatile, but not particularly strong","I went with the Gripmaster to improve on some wrist and forearm workouts that were simply taking too many repetitions. This product was an improvement, but even at the heavy tension, it still takes longer than I would have hoped to get a good workout. However, it definitely works, and I like how it exercises each individual finger instead of just the center of your hand. The design also allows for some other exercises which are available on the product's website. I found the tricep press to be particularly useful.Overall, it's a good, solid product, and it's probably the best out there for this type of workout, but it wasn't quite as stellar as I thought it would be.",13382
1,The rock says,The rock says was one of the most electrifying books ever. This book does not just talk about his matches it talked about his life. It tells you what happened when he was little and what happened growing up. It shows snap shots of the rock his parents his wife his kids.,45678
1,Great Air mattress,"I bought this for my daughter and I to use while camping, and it worked great! It didn't take long to air up. It was surprisingly very comfortable to sleep on. Then it was easy to deflate and store in it's original box. Highly recommended!",36307

0,read the fine print about training techniques,"When I first flipped through this book I was surprised and dismayed to see that the author promotes the use of painful and potentially injurious collars such as the choke collar and/or prong collar. That alone was enough to make me return the book--NO dog collar should poke or choke! There's also lots of info about cats, which is legitimate enough, but since most readers will be training one or the other, and not both, this amounts to wasted text (for which you pay). I'd recommend going online and digging up some info on getting your dog into film or TV, and buying a book like Dog Tricks for Dummies in the meantime. Cute cover, but I returned this one because of the choke-collar issue. FYI, I have an energetic German Shepherd who I pleasantly and successfully trained 100% through positive methods. It is totally possible to do this--I don't care WHAT you're training for (TV, search and rescue, family pet, etc.).",11009

This is an excellent book that covers many of the concepts found in the IZ0-147 exam.It, of course, does not cover everything needed for the IZ0-147 exam.

Seems bands that make references to drug-use and being chauvinistic do very well these days (especially among women...are they that self-loathing or do they just not listen to the lyrics?)I honestly don't believe it is only a 1-star album, but it seems the majority of people posting reviews here are just defending this band against people comparing them to Nickelback. So I'm giving it a one in the hopes to bring the average rating down to where I believe it should be, which is 2 1/2. A completely average album.",13990
1,A good starter book for aspiring goaltenders.,"Although Jacques Plante has passed on,this book serves as a reminder of his great work ethic.

1,"Economically Viable, Dependable Protein","I use the Vanilla Creme protein powder in oatmeal in the mornings and in smoothies sometimes. Drinking this with water is less appetizing, as the drink will foam up a lot and it tastes pretty synthetic. Not bad, just not outstanding.

1,Pleasing Science Fantasy,"We watched this movie on a hunch and found it to be a charming and captivating movie. While it starts off a little slowly it picks up speed and interest as the children discover what the object they found on the beach can do. Their process of discovery takes them in unexpected directions and creates an aura of mystery and suspense as to where all of their adventures will lead them and how it will all end.The acting by the children, played by Chris O'Niel as the brother, and Rhiannon Leigh Wryn as the sister, is thoroughly engrossing and generates a sympathetic concern for their well-being as the question of the results of their decisions is revealed.This is a family movie, has a family friendly ending and is suitable for all ages; I recommend it.",37879
0,Too Much Sugar,"Although its always nice to find gluten free products available to those who suffer from Celiac Disease, its also troubling to find many of these products also are high in sugar. I found this to be extremely too sweet for my taste. If I purchase something that is chocolate I want to taste chocolate not be overwhelmed by sugar.Rice flour in itself is high glycemic and with the added sugar this product made me feel ill from the sugar content. I have been baking for years the old fashioned way with whole wheat but after developing Celiac I no longer could consume it. I learned later from a nutritionist that sugar was also a problem for people who have Celiac. Through trial and error I found this to be so true. Can't the makers of these mixes back off on the sugar? I removed the chips as well as they were too sweet. Other than that its okay for a rice flour mix cause we all know rice does not compare to whole wheat.",17400
1,Genre Film. Gambling Western Motif,This is the definition of a genre film if ever there was one. It's a story of a gambler out west who gets into trouble and has to end up shooting his way out of it. In that sense it's a truely classic picture and perhaps the one that defined the genre. Think The Sting if it was set in the wild west and you have a pretty good idea of what this film is about. The restoration work on the film is well done adn it looks like it could have been filmed yesterday.,40581
1,Jazz Version Remixes! .......,"I jumped on this one after a friend from the ""dirty"" (Atlanta) told me it was selling out down there. Hey...... why wasn't this promoted enough in NY? or maybe I need to listen to the radio more.Not a excellent CD, not really a great CD to me because I have the original version of every track including Tupac, Dre, Outkast, Lil Kim and even Tribe's ""People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm"" original CD I got back in 89 with Bonita Applebum on it and I really think the originals sound better. But if you don't have the original recordings, this is the best thing to them. A hip-hop jazz CD at best, but all remakes. I saw some of these guys perform with Jill Scott and they are a great band, but I think they should've put at least one track of thier own on this CD to let the public know they can right thier on material..........",34332

This movie shows that when trust is not in place it can turn on out to be threaten and also and more importantly that all men are not dogs. Excellent movie with out any violence and a movie that teenagers can really enjoy as well.",570
0,Too Random to be Good,"After enjoying the first two books of this series, I was very excited about this one. But I was doomed to be disappointed. One of EC's strengths is her character development. Yet, she kills off all of the best characters, sometimes in completely random ways. (*cough* the sea elf *cough*) It's irritating to get attached to a cool character and then see them killed with little reason other than EC not wanting to have to deal with them anymore. Characters pop into and out of the storyline without explaination. What happens to Danilo? He just suddenly stops being in the story at all. And what about the big final battle? Again, it is too random to be good. Liriel doesn't even act like you would expect her to. Overall, I was very disappointed. Elaine Cunningham, rewrite this book!",20612
1,Funny movie!,"This is a great movie and still makes me laugh! Yes, you can tell it was made in the 70s but how cool is that?! Dudley Moore steals the scenes he's in. Chevy Chase & Goldie Hawn are hilarious together. This is another one of the movies that my sister and I can quote lines from and make each other laugh ~ ""Beware of the dwarf!"" It's just a great movie to watch when you need a good laugh. The more you watch, the more you pick up! The old women playing dirty word Scrabble is funny...especially seeing old women and ""those"" words BACK IN THE 1970s?! You just have to watch it or have lived it (the 70s, I mean) to get it:) I highly recommend this movie. Make some popcorn and sit down and watch and listen and have a laugh or two or lots more!!",28287

0,Dreadful!,"I've read some bad stories in my time and this one rates as one of the worse. The love-making is as sexy as a bucket of cold sick. Neither of the main characters are very pleasant. Dermott is a ho. There is nothing worse than reading about a hero who sleeps with other women despite supposedly involved with the heroine. And as for Isabella, her behaviour as a virgin beggars belief. I would avoid this book at all costs.",38374

1,Fanny Pack?,YES! I was very leary about this purchase. A fanny pack? I swore them off as a kid because my mom wore them and they seems so un-fashionable. NOT the case! Bought it for our trip to disneyland. I had everything I needed on my body in the fanny pack and my hands were free. I have a two year old and an 8 year old and I didn't wanna have to dig under the stroller everytime I needed something. I wore it to the side more of a hip pack. The hubby even thought it was cute!,19404
0,DONT BUY THIS BRAND,"I loved it when I first got it... but after about two weeks... the casing started coming loose. Within a month, it was unable to be inserted into the computer because it was loose. A friend of mine was able to prolong its life for another couple months but then it died for no apparant reason. I still have the cover for it. I took great care of it considering that it was my only means of accessing a printer for school. This product sucks.",29086
1,INUYASHA RULES!!!...,"Inuyasha would have to be one of the best T.V. shows on earth. Inuyasha is a half demon-dog with a sword(Tetsusaiga). Kagome is a 15 year old girl that used to live a normal life until one day she was pulled into the well (in her shrine *modern tokyo*)by a youkai (demon). There she meets Inuyasha and goes on an adventure with him. Other charactors do join the party (Miroku, Sango, and Shippou). Kagome is the reincarnation of Kikyou, and she has inherited many of Kikyou's special powers. Kagome can see the Shikon no Tama fragments. The Shikon no Tama is a powerful jewel that raises anyones power. It is usually used for evil, but not always. I won't spoil the story for all of you peeps that want to see it. I HIGHLY recomend seeing this movie and the others that follow it. (Especially if you like Ranma or other anime).",11039
0,Don't waste your time or money,The cover of the video will get your attention. You will see Fantasia and Faith Evans and that alone will provoke you to get this video.. BUT let me warn you Looks can be deceiving.. This was more than a disappointment. I was pissed because I spent $2.39 to rent this mess. I wouldn't spend 25cents on this. Please ma'am or sir don't waste your time or money. You only see Fantasia and Faith two times maybe. The storyline was all over the place. The kittens weren't kittens they were more like bears. They were dressed poorly and some of the women in this was too big to be dresses like that. I was embrassed. I will give Nicci Gilbert credit she tried but just because you were an actor in a Tyler Perry play doesn't mean you are a playwright. I am so glad that I didn't invest my money into this project and the marketing team should be ashamed of themselves.. Totally misleading.,8314

An all-powerful secret society keeping the flame ,a serial killer with the same genetics as Christ, a machine developed single-handedly to create holograms of bodies from a strain of their genetic material .

1,great product!,"We love this product. Being able to change the music our son listens to every nite is such a nice option - and we don't have to listen to the same lullaby's all the time (if at all).The light is dim, but as a few others noted, who wants a bright light? The baby is trying to sleep!It's enough light to see him if I peek in and it's still on.I feel the volume is plenty loud enough. It is a crib cd player, not a house cd player. It's plenty loud enough for his tiny nursery, and i've never turned it all the way up.I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 for the battery issue - it eats batteries worse than any other toy he has - including the swing which we use much more often.I thought that was strange, and if it does take that much power, it should come with rechargable batteries.Maybe the next model :)overall we're very pleased though.",43742

If I missed a cleaning in 3 days, the item would be as loud as a tractor. Cleaning was not an easy job as the unit had to be taken apart and all the nooks scrubbed with a bottle brush. When I did clean it, I constantly imagined taking a hammer to it, Office Space style, seeing all the dirty buildup right in front of my eyes yet I could not reach to remove. I can't imagine how anyone would leave this churning germ factory in the middle of a room in plain sight, so to the landfill it goes.",37782
1,honkytonk bluegrass and more,"Even without the famous, ruefully hilarious, Nashville-baiting title song, Murder on Music Row would be an exceptional excursion into countrified bluegrass. It is alleged that George Jones once considered a career in bluegrass, and in some ways Larry Cordle tells us what the Possum might have sounded like if he had. My idea of hillbilly heaven would incorporate a honkytonk with Jones's version of Cordle and Leslie Winn Satcher's ""Jesus and Bartenders"" (""Jesus and bartenders/ Hear it all"") on the jukebox. In the meantime, Cordle's own version will do nicely. First-rate songs and hard-driving yet tuneful instrumentals -- all in all, a reminder of just how good good bluegrass can be.",8959

Now I come to the ""next generation"" of razors. I thought it would be a decent product because of the quality of the Diamond. I couldn't be more wrong. I can not remember the last time I cut myself shaving. It felt as rough as those plastic ones you buy in 20 packs. I took one swipe with it and wanted to stop completely, unfortunately I did not have another razor handy. It felt like rubbing sand paper on already sensitive skin and it didn't even shave closely. I will NEVER use this razor again. I want to run out and stock up on Mach 3 cartridges so I can survive until the 5 blade razor eventually comes out. Hopefully Gillete will make it.",32363

First of all, i could not believe that he is trying to profit from their deaths. I guess it wasn't enough that he and his crew all received medals for successfully downing a commercial airliner. Secondly, I thought he would have expressed some remorse for murdering all those innocent people, but nothing to that effect was found in the reading. If I were him, thank God im not, b/c i have a conscience, I would probably have gone crazy if I had ordered the murder of all those people...including 66 innocent children. And they call Iran a terrorist state? Imagine that.",26613

She has a voice unlike any other except for Jessica Simpson among teen pop queens. All the songs are quality written, except for Dear Diary. Let's just say Britney should stick to the singing. Max Martin is an incredible songwriter and Britney sings the songs amazingly well. From the fast tempo songs- ""Oops!"", ""Stronger"", ""Lucky"", and ""Can't Make You Love Me""- to the slower songs- ""Don't Let Me Be The Last To Know"", ""Where Are You Now"", and ""When Your Eyes Say It""- Britney handles the lyrics very well.

I found myself disgusted and frustrated by the absolutely stupid plot and egregious acting. There isn't even enough nudity or gore to make it remotely watchable. Seriously, do NOT waste your time or money on this movie. Even if you want to see a bad movie, skip this one. It's not only bad, it's stupid and pointless.

This sounds more like an early orchestra rehearsal versus a recording performance; there is out-of-tune playing from all sections almost constantly.

0,Night of Many Dreams,"I cannot recommend this novel to any reader. It had too many aspects of the countless, over-the-top feminist rants that are becoming so tiresome. It was predictable that one of the few decent men in the story was dispatched toward the end so that the women could resume their life together. The history, the relationships and the settings were unbelievable.",24310
1,Rough Riders,"An excellent, gripping account of the 1998 Sydney to Hobart. G. Bruce Knecht takes readers out into the salt, wind, and waves, and recounts the race from the perspective of several yachts, all of which were damaged or sunk. The author extensively interviewed a number of people including Larry Ellison, the world's second-richest man, who swore off the Australian race afterward, and became involved in the America's Cup instead. Mr. Knecht's book is for sea-salts and landlubbers alike, explaining nautical terms, yacht design, and the big money involved, while also telling an age-old tale of man versus ocean.",5208

0,Recipes Don't Work,I tried two recipes - the whole wheat pretzels and the cardamom rolls. The whole wheat pretzels were bread sticks (not the crunchy texture of pretzels as the recipe claimed they would be). The cardamom rolls never did rise. I tried the recipe twice!

I am a fan of Bob Red's Mill products and really wanted to like this book hoping the other reviewers just had bad luck.,16692

0,Nice but too many details wrong,"Overall the system is nice: it sounds fine for a low end system and the picture quality is fine. But I hate using it as a CD player. It takes forever to switch between disks, about 30 seconds. Loading or ejecting a disk take even longer. There is no way to tell what disks are loaded in the machine, and you cannot change one disk while it is playing another. These seem like minor things, but when you walk in to the room and turn on the stereo to listen to some music they add up to a 5 minute delay before you are actually listening to anything. Bleh. If I had it to do over I would get a system like my older one that just has a big tray instead of the fancy slot loader. I guess the people at Sony put looks ahead of function on this one.",2413

0,Lasts a year and fails,"I purchased the Polar Heart Rate Monitor, and it and the included Wearlink strap are a nice combination when they're working. But at about 11 months I started getting eratic readings. Not the battery, not the strap, it's the transmitter. I've read other reviewers who have experienced the same problem. Polar has always had excellent products but this is a very short life span for the expense of this monitor and strap. Polar recommends disconnecting both sides from the strap connectors each time the transmitter and strap are removed. This didn't help my situation.I'll try the newer W.I.N.D. transmitter and strap and hope it lasts longer than the original strap.",35454
1,HATS OFF TO AVERY FOR HONEST ANATOMY!,"I would recommend this book for a remarkably simple reason: it is the only US medical text I know of that has the timetable for the desquamation of the male infant and childhood membrane, the balano-preputial lamina, even vaguely correct. It suggests, quite correctly, that this synechia can persist into late puberty. All other US medical books suggest that this membrane should be gone by age 5 or so, which is patently dishonest and based on Douglas Gairdner's error af anatomy of 1949 found in the BMJ.This little bit of convenient dishonesty has meant injury to millions of US boys for over 50 years.Hats off to Avery's for getting this important detail correct!!John V.

From the moment I used them, they had little juice. After a recharge, they had little juice. In fact, my battery power indicator on the MP3 player only showed one notch (out of three possible) every time I used them, and they died very quickly. I thought that maybe it was just the cheap MP3 player, so I went and bought the cheapest, crummiest alkaline batteries I could fine, and they held a charge WAY longer than these. I gave them two stars because at least I could recharge them and reuse them, even if they only lasted for a few hours.",1269

1,Honor above all,"This is a first rate thriller about the Japanese mafia with an aging Robert Mitchum in one of his best roles as an American who comes back to the orient to right some old wrongs. Fast paced, exciting and intelligent, it has much more to offer with its depiction of friendship, respect and above all honor. This film was vastly ignored when it played theatrically and that's a shame because it is infinitely superior to the type of fare in this genre being made today. It's one of my all-time favorites.",44635
1,Nicholson rocks us yet again,"Jack Nicholson turned in yet another convincing performance as Jack Torrance, who is hired to be the caretaker of The Overlook Hotel for the off-season. He relishes the opportunity to get his marriage back on track and to jumpstart his writing career. Instead, the isolation causes Jack to lose his mind, see flashbacks of the previous caretaker's family murdered, and to set out for a repeat. His family suffers from the isolation just as much and that causes further strain in Jack's marriage.I haven't read Stephen King's novel so I can't make a fair comparison but the movie was done quite well and Nicholson, as always, played his part so well that you feel as though you're losing it along with Torrance.The late Stanley Kubrick may not have faithfully translated King's tale to the big screen but it's pretty good, nonetheless.",34812

Considering that this is a Calculus I book I, and other classmates, felt that there could have been a lot more explanation on the problems. I did, however, take the course online, so there was also no actual discussion involved in my learning. That said, I do not think that the book is effective for independent learning at all.",23178

I am 3 corks shy of having enough to start the project, but will report back later when it's complete.My only complaint, and it's very minor and not really the fault of the trivet (trivet!) is that it's a bit larger than I expected. it's 9x11 - where as I think it would work better if it was a bit smaller.. maybe 6x6.

While Kurth relied on archival material, Lovell apparently preferred to focus on more bizarre aspects of the Anastasia claimant's story - in this case, the possibility that Nicholas and Alexandra had a 5th daughter. The fact that there is no evidence of this does not stop the late Mr. Lovell.This book is bound to disappoint both the supporters of Mrs. Manahan and those who accept the DNA evidence that she was not Anastasia. For the former, Lovell brings up matters and associations her supporters would have rather not seen published. For those who do accept the scientific evidence, this is a rather sad tale of a woman who wanted to be someone else.",589

The rubber on said Kong, I found, is much softer and more pliable than the red Kong we purchased the other day. Too bad I can't include a picture. He's never had a Kong and is still learning how to get small broken pieces of treats to fall of it before progressing to treats that don't fall out, but he gives up after a a few minutes, This isn't a dog whose jaws have been strengthened by chewing on it. His mouth is too small to get around the large end. The company response was that they only guarantee rubber products for 30 days.",49066

I hoped to find a decent scholarly work on some of the most important women of old. But the criterion for the author seemed to be ANY mentioning of ANY woman in ancient documents. And needless to say, most of them are just a little bit more (or not even that) than your regular ""street girl"". I kept asking myself who did she write this book for? Who was her target audience? Her language is mediocre, vulgar and tedious. Did she want to be funny?! As someone has already said, it's a shame that she conducted such a serious research only to publish something that no historian will ever consider worth studying. Simply, it was an ordeal to read.

The floating flower pedals in the first couple of scenes, are truely magical. The unicorns are absolutley stunning, and Mia Sara and Tom Cruise show a love that is stronger than any one else has displayed in movie history!

0,Lame Book,"I've read a lot of books on the subject of religion. And many on the LDS specifically. In this book it is very obvious Mr Cowan has an ax to grind.

In his book, Mr Cowan tries over and over to convince us that he is right and thousands of LDS are ""mis led"". One has to wonder why he really dismissed himself as LDS and now concentrates on bashing them.Not a good book. Seems to be writen out of spite.",21316
1,Fun and function!,"This chain is adorable, brightly colored with interesting wooden shapes that my little teether just loves to chew on (in fact, I think the chain itself spends more time in his mouth than the pacifier does). He likes to look at it alot, too, and feels the different textures with his fingers (the swirl on the circle and the dots on the bowtie are slightly indented). My only concern is that the nose on the bear is not of a piece with the bear's head; it *seems* pretty securely fastened to it, but I do worry about a choking hazard. Luckily, if you clip the bottom of the chain far enough down his outfit, he can't get the bear's nose into his mouth, so as long as it's clipped securely it's a non-issue. That is the only reason this gets 4 stars from me instead of 5.",45860

It has the look and feel of an exploitation film and doubtless it is, and I find that insulting to history and to the people who suffered in the tragedy and to their families.Aside from bad acting and incoherent script and poor direction, there is no effort to put the material into any framework that tells much of a story past what one might find in bits on the web. It does not seem to have a perspective. It is not a documentary or a docudrama. It is just a lot of ""stuff"" thrown together with plenty of gore for people who thrive on gore.

1,Works great,If you are just taking daily pictures don't buy this flash. The built-in flash is good enough for you. This is a perfect flash if you want to take some more serious pictures.

There are only two things I do not like. First, she talks way too much (she even admits that during the workout). Second, the music is hard to hear.

You'd except to get a lot of content packed in such a small book but that's the opposite : there are only very few pages of text in the whole book, of very moderate usefulness in my opinion.

At the tender age of seven, her parents took her to the airport so she could find her own way to a Broadway show and back. Her parents never worried about her, even if she disappeared for days. They believed Wendy could do no wrong. Wendy grew up to be pretty, caring, with high grades, and about to go to college.Paul Randall was the ultimate bad boy. Even the gangs steered clear of him. Wendy and Paul found themselves deeply attracted to each other. Against his will, Paul fell in love with her. However, he knew he had to let her go or she would give up all her dreams for him. Problem was that Wendy did not want to be let go. Paul would have to hurt her, badly, for her own good.**** Wendy is a bit hard to believe, but she and Paul suit each other well.

0,Monumentally Awful,"Truely one of the worst movies I have ever had the misfortune to lay eyes on. I award this one star only because the Amazon ranking system does not allow zero ( or negative !) stars in the rating options. I thought ""The Quiet Man"" was a bad enough representation of an ""Oirish"" movie but Waking Ned explores previously uncharteded depths. I know this movie is supposed to be a light piece of whimsy and not to be taken too seriously. Believe me, I am as open to whimsy as the next person but when one sees how much better it can be ( and has been ) done - ""Whisky Galore"" immediately comes to mind - it is just bloody annoying to have to sit through this mindless drivel. A movie clearly designed for the mass American market of tourists who come to Ireland , wearing lime green trousers, dreadful garish jackets and proclaiming themselves to be ""Irish"".

0,Another Disappointing Release From Paavo Jarvi,"Paavo Jarvi seems to be stepping outside of the composers his father, Neeme, favors, which is a good thing, but Paavo's conducting of Ravel is hardly impressive. Like his Debussy recording,Debussy: Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune; Nocturnes; Etc. [Hybrid SACD], there is just something missing here. I can't hear one bit of passion coming from Jarvi. The Cincinatti Symphony Orchestra play well, but there's just not much fire here. Am I missing something? I don't think I am. I own almost every recording of Ravel's orchestral music available.That said, the audio quality is top-notch, but this alone does not save this recording from mediocrity. Perhaps someone else will enjoy this recording, I just couldn't get into Jarvi's way with Ravel. I'll stick with Martinon, Boulez, Dutoit, and Tortelier.",18610

0,Great actors in a really badly directed movie!,"Not only is the script bad, the thing doesn't flow and is full of technical errors! The really glaring one has to be that it'd be really interesting to see what would have actually happened if someone had really filled up an Electra's engine oil tank with aviation fuel! How about two enlisted coasties saluting each other? A cutter backed up to what looks like 100' from an island's beach? Very few of the scenes flow and much of the dialogue consists of quotes from letters, books and transcripts of radio messages all taken in or out of context. Amelia is first made out to be a simple 'country girl' then has flights of poetic rapture about flying. Hilary Swank very seldom gets to do more than just resemble her. Gere turns out probably the best performance, while McGregor is barely able to be satisfactory. Probably not the fault of these three, but the movie isn't worth more than a rental.",43066

Perhaps it is a question of aesthetics - I really like the author's color schemes and design sense. Would definitely buy this book again!!!",43390
0,Kindle Book Editions Are More Expensive Than Paperbacks in Some Cases,Amazon and publishers are going to blow this distribution channel out of the water if they don't get pricing agreements resolved. They need to look at the demographics that illegally download and ascertain whether a DRM situation is really going to inhibit diehard piracy - and passing the cost of that on to legitimate consumers will be another notch in the belt for the death of the traditional publishing industry. I'm disappointed that Amazon isn't managing this more effectively and now wonder if buying a Kindle was a mistake.,16682
0,Very Unoriginal: Write your own music for crying out loud!,"Well after hearnig the title track off this album on the radio I was immediately deflated. One of my favorite songs ""Glow of Love"" by the 70's group Change was repackaged shamelessly for Miss Jackson. Another slap across our faces. Actually they just took the Luther Vandross Vocals off the song and added her new deep lyrcis. You'd think Jam, Terry and Janet would at least have the decency to reperform the music themselves.The second single, no suprise, was another rip off. This time the song was from the band ""America"". Second slap across our face. Forget the flashing she's slapping us left and right. That's physical abuse and artistic abuse.This album deserves no respect, is un artistic and just plain made to make money. If you want to hear new original music go elsewhere.Where is the zero star rating when you need it!!!!!",49943
1,Manchester's Sad Cafe' back in the limelight,"They never really hit the big time, even in England. Everyday Hurts was a minor hit from the lads from Manchester, but even that was fleeting. Nice to see this re-issue of several of their better tracks. The album is actually a compilation of Fanx Ta-ra, Misplaced Ideals and Facades. The lyrics feel a little stilted these days (""looked out of the window what did I see? I saw the devil he was looking at me...."") but it does take fans back to those heady days of the Manchester Apollo with its memorable power outages. Shame they didn't include live tracks in this set but we can always hope for the re-issue of the live album. Colin Bodell",14536
0,"Good photography, annoying narration and distractions","For those of you looking for something in the mold of Planet Earth, Life of Mammals, and Life in the Freezer, you are going to be deeply disappointed. The first 20 minutes of the feature is a lecture on global warming, with excessive amounts of coverage of humans studying the arctic ice. The second half actually features ""the Masters of the Arctic Ice"", but the narration seems more interested in rambling about climate change than actually providing insight as to what is occurring with the animals. If you are a fan of stern global warming lectures, you will love this. If you actually wanted to learn about the animals, there are easily a dozen better DVDs you should view first.This is a true shame, as it has some of the best film yet of seal and polar bear dens. However, I can't tolerate political lectures when I merely want to study animal behavior and interaction.",15248

From the opening track 'The Times They Are A-Changin' to 'Restless Farewell', the listener is immersed in an album truly reflective of the chaotic 60's in which it was produced. So much of these songs still ring true today. Consider this a mint from Dylan's protest days and an essential purchase for all those into acoustic folk. Brilliant.",39534

It really made the party atmosphere come alive with that special Spanish flamenco flavor, but not the same old stuff. This is one CD that you do not stack away, I play it all the time and never tire of it, I am sure some day I will, but not for a while.

0,What was the point?,"After reading the rave reviews this movie received from critics, including the Cannes Film Festival, I had high expectations. I was left with a feeling of pointlessness. I understand that the movie was trying to depict the occurrences as a real life event that is very anti-climatic due to the distance one places between themselves and the world around them. However, if van Sant was not going for shock value there are a few discrepancies I have with this movie. If the goal of this movie was not to shock then why the pointless scenes such as the girls going into the bathroom and regurgitating or the two boys making out in the shower? These scenes, I believe were not necessary to the plot of the movie and seemed as lame attempts to ""rawly"" portray a sensitive issue just to do it. I did like the anticlimactic aspect of the shootings but there was no substance behind this movie. I received nothing out of the time I put in to watch this and it would not matter if I had never seen it.",40916

0,Khoti Jhinjoti,"Although The Khans are playing in the framework of Jhinjoti, it seems to be a mish mash from various renditions of the raga performed by many other artists. There is even a Maihar element to it, it is true Jhinjoti is a light raga and can be performed in a less conservative manner but that doesnt reserve the concept of blatently combining phrases taken from different artists. Also the Sarode is played in the manner of the Sitar which is not a sacrilege, but it clashes with the Surbahar. There are some intresting taans that are worth having in ones collection.The Pilu on the other hand is very esoteric Villayat Khan, and is the better one of the two. I would purchase this album, and this is because the listener gets glimpses from many other traditions",29238
0,Disappointing,"I picked this book out of the new books section of the local public library. Several aspects of the book were a disappointment. First of all, it was too long. The story could have easily been told as a short story, instead of a rather painfully protracted novella. Secondly, I had rather expected the author to teach me something new about the era in which the historical novel took place. That didn't happen; Having read the book I now know absolutely nothing that I didn't already know about Norman England. Thirdly, the characters were superficial, wooden, and rather remarkably peevish, most of them flying off the handle on the spur of the moment for no clear reason. Lastly, the dialogue sounded contrived and unbelieveable, even supposing it to be a representation of people speaking a thousand years ago. Sorry, but I found the book to be a tedious bore.",14728

Since the series was filmed in Australia, it could be CBS/Paramount was not able to track down the original film source. Any fans out there can fill me in on this one?

I'm not sure how the other reviewers are having a hard time moving the plunger, because mine won't stay put. I use these exclusively for shortening, as I'm an avid baker. Because you have to push the shortening into the measuring cup (to remove air pockets), this product doesn't work for me. On the Wonder Cup, when you push down, the plunger stays on the mark. For this one, the plunger moves with the slightest pressure, so I cannot use it to measure shortening without holding my finger at the bottom of the outside cylinder to keep it from moving. What a pain! Otherwise, the concept is good. It gives you liquid and solid measurements and plenty of them. I just with it would be of use. I finally threw the thing away.",43268

0,This movie blew chunks.,"I'd like to point out first that I like Star Trek films, but this particular one (the first for the Next Generation) is horrible. With Malcolm McDowell as the lead villain, I expected much more. But instead he is depicted as a crazed scientist with an addiction to return to a portal which only reaches availability on rare occassions.Speaking of that portal, what a joke. The whole movie is set up around it but it really isn't even something that looks to belong in the film. And trying to merge former Star Trek cast members with current ones sounds good on paper, but I believe Shatner's ego tried to steal the show on this one .... and it didn't look good.Perhaps the most unforgiving detail here is the explosion of the Klingon ship, it's the EXACT SAME SCENE from the previous Star Trek movie!

0,Great idea... horrible bug [US version],"The overall idea and implementation for this game is good. I think there are ways it could be improved.But all that doesn't really matter. There is a horrible bug where a huge pop-up window comes up during game-play, basically covering the entire board. The pop-up says ""ATTENTION! Please wait..."" and takes about 5-10 seconds and then returns you to the game.Apparently the issue is due to some buggy code that is checking your battery life. If you aren't at full battery power with the power cord plugged in, you'll start getting the pop-up and it will happen several times per game/board.Some people may be able to still play through this, but I find it unplayable.",2979

0,DO NOT BUY CEIVA FRAME!,"When I first found Ceiva frame I got very excited. It was a fascinating idea. I purchased five of them only to learn later what a waste of money it was. The problem is the design and the service Ceiva provides. Invariably every one of the frames I purchased had difficulty connecting and receiving picture. The website was not accepting the serial number of one of the frames. Each phone call you make to Ceive means at least 45minutes being on hold.The representatives are very poorly trained and just read a series of instruction to you which is completely useless.They never respond to your emails to their customer support service. It is extremely frustrating. Service is poor, unacceptable and lousy. DO NOT BUY CEIVA. I already returned mine.",31918

That one fallback isn't enough for me to say stay away from these because let's face it is definitely worth buying these films in High Definition, the clarity of picture and sound is something to marvel at and worth every penny.

She wants the U.S. to become the ""Big Brother"" of the world. She does not supply any historical or philosophical evidence to support her fantastic thesis. Her recent appearance on Bill Moyer's weekly PBS program did not enhance her credibility. She is one of those persons who believes that she knows everything and expects others to accept her statements without question. On course, Moyers nevcer asked for her evidence. In my opinion, Power's philosophy is this: the U.S. should become Plato's Republic. Thanks, but no thanks.",42503
1,Great Read!!,I found out about this book from going to the ArmyAirForces.com website. The most interesting parts were the way that American airmen tried to fit in in England including the language barrier. Another part that I found out to be very interesting was how many American crewmen actually landed in Sweden. From prior readings I never knew that even one bomber crew landed in Sweden.Personal accounts are always the best and Erik did a great job collecting them. Unfortunately many of the WWII vets are passing away each day so hopefully this book will recall their experiences for many years to come.,42256
1,About time!,"This album has been missing from the catalog for many years. Like John Ford's ""The Searchers"", it's a seminal work, influencing others over the years. When you listen, you hear things that sound like other artists - that sounds like Lyle Lovett, this sounds like Jimmy Buffett, that sounds like J.J. Cale, this sounds like Robert Earl Keen, but then you look at the date and find that this collection was published in 1972, and these other folks sound like Willis Alan Ramsey.The production values are not as of 1999, but the creativeness and talent are ageless. If you are a fan of 'country rock', or progressive country, or Texas music, or anything along those lines, this is for you. (P.S.

The other thing is that the connection between speakers has been an issue for me, as the right speaker (which connects and disconnects from the left speaker only)goes out sometimes. Have to fiddle with the connection. Not major, but certainly another pain, and just not acceptable, again.One more gripe, too short of a cord.

This is a great sports walkman because it in my opinion is one of the better brands as far as not skipping(Sony sportman is the overall best)compared to others ive used(5 different kinds in past 10 years). It is not perfect thought because it does have a tendency to skip once in great while but you gotta be really jumping up and down or running rather rapidly for it to do that. Overall any activity you do while using this walkman is not really interfered with. The sound quality is great and the hand strap is a great size for anyone to adjust to. I would recommend it over all the others even though it costs a bit more its a small price to pay for consistency, great sound, and overall enjoyment with less aggrevation from the constant skipping from other CD walkmans that claim to be Anti-skip.",15408

0,"3 ft version sold by Pwrtech, LLC is ~6 ft, and a knockoff","I will preface this by saying I've been buying/using CablesToGo cables for many years. I recognize their packaging, and have a real CablesToGo cable that arrived in the same order - however the real one was sold by Amazon; the packaging for 2 of these cables were just unmarked and torn ziplock-style bags and one was just thrown in the box with nothing but the false label identifying it as a CablesToGo cable.There are 2 things wrong with the order that caused me to write this negative review:1) As you may have gathered, I suspect the item was not of the brand advertised and2) These 3ft cables were nearly six feet long. I have scads of 6ft power cords, I didn't need 3 more.The good news is that Amazon customer service allowed me to ship these back at no cost to me.This seller has many positive reviews, so perhaps this is a fluke.

0,Things Not Seen,My name is M.S. and I am in 8th grade. I just read Things Not Seen by Andrew Clements.

I felt that the ending was good though because it is exciting to see how he turns back to normal and lives a normal human life. I recommend this book to people who like fantasy books because it is very interesting.,33896

1,My favorite tool at home and at work,"So we have one of these at work and I thought it was just awesome. But we pretty much only use it for onion rings and cucumber slices because the serrated blades were lost LONG long ago... To make julienne cuts, we either have to do it by hand or use this big bulky French mandolin that binds up, doesn't sit well, and is hard to clean. (Our old head chef was a master with it, but he retired and none of us are very good with it.)So I bought this to throw in my work bag and pull out whenever I need to make julienne carrots. Also, I can have that same precision and uniformity at home as I do at work.There is a major downside in that it stains VERY easily. You have to scrub it almost immediately after you use it with carrots or something. I'm sure that set-in stains could be removed with a bleach soak and scrub, though. In spite of this, I gave it a five-star because I'm not terribly concerned about the appearance of this item so long as it works well.",46605

0,iPod Mini in PINK!,I bought one of these for my wife and she loves it. I find it terribly over-rated.I especially hate the software under Windows - it was probably the worst installation procedure I have ever seen - not allowing you to customize what or where it is installed. Its like they thought we all want to be Mac users and just automatically do everything for us even though we would like control!It's also real buggy under Windows - always appearing to hang. And it is not ergonomic to update the iPod with new songs - it has to plugged in and out again constantly. It will not recognize new CDs unless you restart the software. My advise is to have the iPod unplugged all the time until you are ready to update the songs.There is a long way Apple has to go with this before it is as good as some of the other brands designed for Windows.,49157

1,Fine dictionary,"This is a good dictionary for beginners and intermediate students. However, the focus on furigana may not be such a good thing - there is the risk of relying on them as a crutch instead of learning kanji properly as furigana use is actually relatively uncommon in Japanese texts meant for adult readers. So if one can avoid becoming ""dependent"" on furigana, then this is a good dictionary. It would probably be pretty useless to advanced learners of the lanugage. Again, taking the time to memorize kanji readings instead of relying on furigana will save you a lot of time spent on looking them up when you are trying to read a text that does not incude any or all furigana.Ivan Rorick",10900

Fans of Until The Ink Runs Out are in for a very big surprise. Vanity mixes it up a little bit, from old school 18 Visions to a softer more Get Up Kids/Incubus approach. It still has the hardcore aspect of 18 Visions but might lack getting the attention of old fans. "" Fashion Show"", ""One Hell of a Prize Fighter', and "" You Broke Like Glass"" are for the ""hardcore"" fans while ""Vanity"", "" I Don't Mind"", and "" Love In Autumn"" are for the more open minded ""hardcore"" fans.

There are times when the scanner works really well and I do not have issues with the feeder. But more often than not I have to feed even a 3 page document because it continually jams. I did not purchase this product anticipating I would have to constantly feed documents 2 pages at a time. The product description boasts that it can hold up to 50 pages.

It has funny moments (the fans showing Smelly no love), touching moments (Fat Mike missing his daughter's birthday), tense moments (an anti-religion band in religion-heavy territory), and moments where you just have to admire the band's ambition and what they're trying to accomplish on this tour.

I've already ordered and watched two more seasons and can't wait to see the rest. The only problem I have (and why I gave the product 4 stars even though it deserves 5) is because the DVDs in this set were made double-sided, possibly to save money on the manufacturers part. However, I found that they got scratched very easily and episodes I hadn't even gotten a chance to watch yet were scratched when I got to them. It was disappointing, but since this first season/dvd set I haven't had the problem because the rest of the seasons are one-sided discs. it's a small, unfortunate problem for someone like me who wants to watch the episodes and can't because the DVDs will be scratched.

1,Excellent Reference for Students,"I used Chaucer A to Z in both my senior year of high school and my freshman year of college where I talked a professor into letting me into his upper-level English course on Chaucer. I found the book to be a tremendous help in understanding what was going on in Chaucer's early works, like the Book of the Duchess, as well as giving me a greater understanding of each of the Canterbury Tales. Since none of the classes covered ALL of the Canterbury Tales, I was able to use Ms. Rossignol's summaries to find out what I was missing in the tales we didn't read. The information about Chaucer's life was also very helpful. All in all, this is a first rate book, the most comprehensive guide to Chaucer I have seen.",12450
0,Too many POV's & very dated,"I love the urban fantasy genre, but I just couldn't get into thisbook. It was written in the 1980's and boy does it feels dated. Theauthor also jumps from multiple POV's within each chapter (there wereat least five different POV jumps in the first three chapter alone,more if you count switching back and forth between already revealedPOV). Also, this is supposed to be the first in the Diana TregardeInvestigation series , but she is not the main character, a maledetective, Mark Valdez is.I gave this book my standard three chapter test, which few booksfail, but I couldn't read anymore. Take a pass on this one.",25074
0,Great subject ruined by poor writing,"This book and subject matter could have been a lot more enjoyable if it were not for the horrible writing style of the author.This book is proof that anyone can get published if you 'know someone in the biz'.If you can get past the bad writing, the subject is entertaining. The first chapter, on sex, is not for the easily offended! Straight from the hip talk about something the Romans apparently enjoyed very much!I don't get the need to write an 'apology' chapter. After all, isn't anything historical going to be a rehash of what others have already written, but from a different point of view??The map was cool. So was the glossary.If you want info on the Roman Emperors, you'd find better luck with a different author.",13265

After the first six chapters, the book was really boring me. If it weren't for the fact I had to write a book report on Dreamcatcher for my class, I would have quit reading it right away. A couple of parts were interesting, but the alien conflict was little to none. I guess you could say Stephen King caught the wrong dream to write about this time.",3727

0,A completely unnecessary downward spiral,This seals the deal on my opinion of Oprah books. I finished it only because I feel compelled to finish books I start. It was like one of those movies where you want to scream at the characters to stop what they're doing because it's just plain stupid. The characters kept making dumb mistakes that sent them further and further into a downward spiral...a completely unnecessary downward spiral.,40031
1,Riviting and Absorbing Reading,"I have the pleasure of having all four books in this series. I have read the first ""SkyStone"" and the second, ""Singing Sword."" I was impressed with the first and awed at the second. Mr. Whyte has taken fact and mingled it with fiction to make a more than plauseable series of events leading to the Arthurian period and legend. If you are a Roman History Buff or an Arthurian junkie you need to emerse yourself in these books. My only worry is that Mr. Whyte will stop at the four, when I think he should continue on through Arthur's reign and death. The characters are real. Villian's are villianous, calculating, a ruthless. Heros have problems but are as calculating and ruthless when required. Mr. Whyte also addresses issues that are paramount in out society today, such as domestic violence. The SkyStone is a must read with three more to follow",6554
0,Mediocre,"A friend of mine suggested I read this collection because she knows I prefer metrical verse. Unfortunately, although many of the poems in this selection are formal, they aren't all that good. The metrical poems are proficient though not deft (one wishes for the music of a Donald Justice or cleverness of an Anthony Hecht), but the poems rarely involve you; the poems seem too much like diary work, which is great for the writer but not so great for others. I am not a poetry critic, but I can say this book isn't what I thought it was going to be. I figured a selected poems would be the best poems by the poet. After reading it, I am not up to reading her life's work to see if they were, in fact, the best.",33988

It does none of the things it's supposed to. It's grinds are completely inconsistant. No matter what the setting, you will get a grind that ranges from coarse to fine powder. With mine it is about 1/3 fine powder. Worse yet, it somehow gives this fine powder an electric charge that makes it impossible to get it from it's container to the pot without it flying all over the place. What a mess! What a piece of crap. I see there's a new model out now, and it looks like they've changed the look a little to hide the fact that it's still the same piece of junk that this one is. Beware!",43169

The problem is that those, like these, suffer from subpar build quality. I bought two of these. Each one broke in the exact same way: the plastic pieces that hold the headphones in place broke. They both broke after 2-3 months of ownership. When they do break you see how poorly constructed they are. The plastic is very weak.Also, these are just headphones I wear at the office, while working at my desk. I'm not stuffing them into some overstuffed bag or throwing them around the house.",15754

I am sorry to say this is the least accurate version, and poorly done. The casting was horrible, the story changed drastically, cut in half and dark parts were often turned humorous. Nelly is too young and has a crush on Heathcliff, Catherine is silly, Heathcliff too weak. Yes, the DVD is widescreen, and the music is okay, though a bit too light and not nearly as moving as other versions. I bought this version entirely on the other reviews, and am very disappointed. Has anyone actually read it? I say read the book, and then watch the Ralph Fienne/Juliet Binoche version, which still holds the best and most complete version that is out there.

0,I dislike this rice/bean blend,"I've been a vegan for six years, so I know a thing or two about rice and beans, and definitely have some strong preferences. I don't like Zatarain's rice and beans (red or black). There are a few different reasons for this, but the primary one is that on two separate occasions I've found ""stuff"" in the mix. Both times it was the same thing: a sort of fibrous, bone-like object, about the size of a marble. The first time it happened I was rather grossed out, but the second time I quit this stuff for good. I've found that both Wegmanns and Giant offer store brands of rice that taste better and are often more cost efficient, and I have not eaten Zatarain's since that.",3370

Well, I decided to take the reel apart to see if I could have salvaged it had I not jerked on the cord until it broke. Nope. I took it apart, and untangled the remaining cord and reassembled it. It jammed again on the very next pull. Don't be fooled, maybe buy a smaller plastic ID reel instead.",24290

1,"Easy read with powerful, balanced content","I've read many of the health and diet books in the field and I found Markham's book the easiest to read with all the relevant content. He covers creating desire, weight control and exercise in small, easy to digest bites, and helps you get started, literally, one bite at a time. I got through the book in about an hour and it gave me the kind of guidance offered by other books in a fraction of the time. In fact I lost 14 pounds in about three weeks on double cheeseburgers for lunch. Dr. Markham cares about his patients and it comes through in the testimonials he gets. Most people hate reading lengthy books. Markham has succeeded in writing like he presents in person, with wit, wisdom, and self depreciating humor.

His duet with Beyonce, The Closer I Get To You, should just be a number one hit. You can't play it just once. Luther has the ability to bring out the best in someone's voice and he certainly achieved this with Beyonce. In the song, Lovely Day, you really get to appreciate the range in Luther's voice. He actually sounds as if he is a one-man singing group who changes registers so gracefully. One man with so much talent is just heaven sent. They Said You Needed Me is awesome - I do need Luther.

I think Michael was very pure, very sensitive and very talented. Like everybody else he made mistakes and his life like each one of us wasn't perfect but he utilized his talent for good, communicating a good message to the world and to kids. In this book you get to know his story from his own words and at the end you admire him even more because he was always awesome as a human being and as an artist giving all that he could to entertain the world and achieve levels never imagined. He is the King of Pop in his own right because he worked for it.",26096

That being said, it was still a bad movie. The acting is just as good as in the games, bad. The thing that really got under my skin was that they used scenes from the blocky game in this movie. The fight scenes were also bad, the constant spinning camera around the actors had me convince that the camera must have been trapped in a small tornado. The zombies were also lacking in the make up department. Overall, a bad movie that is only good for laugh value. The movie just so cheesy, it's funny.

1,An interesting Blend of used plots,"Most have found similarities with Star Wars and Lord of the rings, and I have to say that I found much of the same. I enjoyed the book, but it had its faults. The elves came off kind of boring in all their perfectionism. Honestly I don't quite see why Eragon is in love with Aria. Well, I guess its more of a young love than a mature one. She's so reserved emotionally to the point of being stale. If she were just human and not a 'beautiful' elven princess would Eragon be as infatuated? Roran's account was more interesting and seemed more real, although I was surprised to find that katrina *spoiler* was alive in the end. The Ra-zac eat humans right, and then Katrina is no one of true signifcance. Why keep her alive? Not bad but there is room for improvement.",42532

1,"British Humor, Ancient History, Social Commentary - love it","This book describes the people, cities and culture of Turkey with more practical experience and humor than any other I've read. From the streets of Istanbul to the border of Syria to the Black Sea, Mr. Seal accidentally (on purpose) gives a compelling account of the social changes in Turkey from the Ottoman Empire to the present while describing his search for the origin of the Fez hat. This would be a great book to read during downtime in Turkey, but probably better before or after - you need to relax during downtime while you're there.",35281

1,World war II era,Dr Blacker Farragon is a resident in a hospital but expecting soon to leave for war duty. He loves a nurse and has good friends who get involved in a nasty murder of Celia a real siren. Mimsy who is Celia's 6-yr old daughter finds or sees the murder of her mother and the shooting of her father while they are quarreling. Mimsy is discovered trying to revive her parents and is holding the gun and is covered in blood. Dr Black takes care of her in the hospital along with her father who is suspected of the murder. But Black is convinced that the father didn't do it and that Mimsy knows who did so using her doll house he is able to get her to go back with play so they can find the real murderer. This is a quick read and really got my attention and concern for little Mimsy. The back cover of the Dell paperback has a map of the house of which the doll's house is a replica. There is also a key in the front of the book listing all the characters.,34779
1,Authenticity.,"Perhaps everyone has one good book in them, but it is rare to have witnessed and researched what Mr. Gilmore has here. Another review used the word artifact and that touches on the authenticity of the book. To simplify, the reader can infer that the intelligent and artistic Gary Gilmore came to expect repression as the expression of fatherly behavior and ultimately appealed to have himself shot in the heart. In contrast, the equally willful crimes of Mr. Bundy, who may have killed hundreds, never resulted in a desire on his part to submit to his punishment. Society may be thankful for the honorableness of Gary's decision. There is much to think about in this book. Much as the current Monica story, reading the tea leaves here will reveal more about the reader than the tea.",1987

0,It's just not very good...,"This album has two giant faults which are cheesy production and a lack of great songs. There are a few bright and charming moments, but those are heavily outweighed by uninspired numbers like ""For You Blue"" and production massacres of ""The Long and Winding Road"" and ""Across the Universe.""

0,It didn't seem like this was written by Linda Howard,"I have ALL of Linda Howard's books. She has been one of my two favorite authors, so I grabbed this when I saw it. The more I read, the more I began to question whether Linda Howard actually wrote this book. It lacks the depth of her other time travel novel, ""Son of the Morning."" In fact, it seems to lack the depth of character, depth of plot, depth of detail, and depth of research of ALL of her other works. It's pale compared to her really great contemporary work, ""Mr. Perfect."" I have heard that when authors get really, really famous and in demand, they sometimes subcontract part or all of a novel to other writers. That was the feeling I got from ""Killing Time."" It was an ""okay read"" but did not seem authentic to Linda Howard's other work and was disappointing from that perspective.",45518

My son adores the butterflies and wants to see the final page as much as possible. He does make a special effort to be gentle with the butterflies, but they're pretty fragile. One has a bent wing now, and the wing sometimes catches on the other butterflies when we try to close the book. Other than that, though, I have no complaints.

For maximum enjoyment of the film, it probably is best to forget all about the novel and view it as a thing-in-itself. Far more mature and sophisticated than the Bond movies that made Sean Connery a household name, The Name of the Rose is visually interesting and compelling throughout. So what if Murray Abraham pushes his character over the top and Christian Slater's ingenuousness is a bit precious, this is still excellent entertainment for those who do not require that their thrillers be accompanied by car chases and gunshots.",47727
0,A Condescending view of the genre,"This book seems as if it were written to impress a tenure committee. The author clearly doesn't like horror literature, and his constant jibes at the works he discusses, though occasionally amusing, make one wonder why he has spent so much time on the subject. As you might expect from a critic who doesn't ""get"" the genre, his readings are shallow. M. R. James, for example, is portrayed as merely a skillful purveyor of gore. Worse, Kendrick reads all the works as having the same meaning. In his view, an attachment to such literature is puerile.I did learn a few things from this book--for example, the history of horror in the theater was mostly new to me, and probably will be to many genre addicts. On the whole, though, the author simply knows less about his subject than most of his readers will.",18395

The details listed in this book were given in a manner that made it easy to understand and process with the text. I felt that even though this was a history book that it read with the prose of a novel. I have read many history books on both the war in the pacific and in europe and have never seen a book that got into the why's of what was going on.

But they took the cheap way out - instead of creating suspense, they just substituted gore. They were obviously going for over-the-top how much blood and disturbing imagery can we throw in? Also be warned that if planning to watch this with young, tasteful, or sensitive folks, the f-word is the most commonly used word in the movie - no less than 100 times. So, while I applaud its originality, it is definitely a movie born of the horror video game era, and not of the masters of suspense that came before. It does not make a good date movie, family movie, or suspense move - it's just a creative, but disturbing, slasher pic. I expected more from Joss.",37335

0,Not up to my -- or Wolfe's -- usual standards,"This mystery has all the hallmarks of a hasty, poorly reasoned book. Red herrings are sprinkled throughout the book -- why were the Emersons so upset? why were mother and son searching Rony's apartment? why did they change their mind and welcome Rony to their home? Finally, the big resolution scene never satisfactorily explained how Wolfe figured out ""who dun it?""Light on the usual atmosphere and definitely short on the key to a good mystery -- Stout has done much better.",45222
1,A truly amazing organized crime book,"Claire Sterling does an amazing job of exposing the new world order of organized crime. Her references seem impeccable and the story she tells is one of world governments crippled by an inability to coordinate and cooperate to the degree that counter-governments (ie, crime families) are cooperating. As a result, the world Sterling paints is one where crime is rapidly becoming the single dominant force in world politics and economics.",2933

0,"Good concept, less-than-impressive writing","Though the story in general has a touching point behind it, this book became quite difficult to follow at certain points. There is a lot of jumping around, causing the reader to waste time trying to figure out what is going on, who is speaking, and so on. Occasionally, this would not be an issue, but it becomes highly annoying when it happens consistently through a book. Also, (and I realize it was most likely done for an authentic feel in some of the letters) the grammar was horrible. Run-ons drive me nuts. At times, I enjoyed this book, but more often than not, I just got very bored and annoyed. Not the book for me, but it may be more of someone else's style!",30957

1,Good Structural Concepts,"Just getting down the concept of Scene-Sequel makes this book worth the price many times over. It reminds me of the linked-list concept in computer science. It might seem overly formulaic until you are shown that the parts, once identified, do not have to be in sequence, do not have to be in order from scene to scene, and can even be ellipsed when understood or otherwise inferred. The concept of adjusting pace by modifying the balance of scene and sequel is brilliant. No aspiring novelist should start his first novel (or begin revision of the first-draft at least) without reading this book.",143

The title of my review refers to all the negative reviews I've heard from so-called ""hardcore maggots"".This is not the Slipknot you're used to. Don't get me wrong, it's still there but on this new album, the band has evolved and it's definitely for the better. The same thing happened with Metallica when they did the Black Album.

Unionization solves no problems and in fact, inflames them - look to California for good examples.

Everything burns in this thing unless you watch it. It gets so hot that the oil winds up being trashed after one use.I've called Presto about it and their only response is that ""the oil temp will top out at 385"".The only way to work with this thing is to keep plugging and unplugging it to try to keep the temp near 350.And if you want to fry fish or shrimp then you better be very quick on plug work.Very disappointed in this thing.",35651

His book enlightens the reader about headmen, chiefs, kings and emperors from the Pacific Islands, sub-Saharan Africa and lowland South America who wear necklaces of large canines from the most powerful and ferocious animals in their respective environments. One can see this book being THE basis for future research, or for class studies/required reading at any respectable university.

True, 'How it Is' overcomes all of the obstacles and is the lone standout on this dismally produced cd.Alex's guitar just seems lifeless (no pun intended). The distortion makes no sense. Where he can normally create wonderful sound landscapes he just seems to be meandering around the fretboard. And it's not his fault. It's the sound. It is not at all produced correctly for his guitar. In turn the entire cd is thrown off.I wish we could say more for this return.This album was rated 3 stars by me but I cannot seem to get it updated correctly.",20651

Gwen immediately responded to Luke with undeserved harsh animosity, judging him without knowing anything about him or having the facts straight. Gwen was so quick to assume the worst about him (she was also too quick to have sex with him, especially while proclaiming to dislike him so much). Luke summed it up best when he told Gwen that one day, she just might be the woman her mother is, one who looks for the good in everyone and finds it.",39613

I couldn't find a review on it so I went and bought it. Unfortunately all this movie has going for it is the animation. Which personally I think is superb! The story is sorely lacking and the translation must be way off, Heck I don't speak a word of japanese but I can even tell I was missing more to the story. There is no explanation to any of the characters nor why they are there except there deamons attacking Japan. No explanation on the demons at all. Plus the movie seems skip alot from scene to scene without explaing any of the event. To top it off you have an ending that makes no sense. You don't even know what exactly is happening. I advise just to rent it and if you do put it on mute and just look at the eye candy.",42788

I wanted a taste of meteorology on that level, and this book does it. Mostly it involves no more than high school physics with algebra, but the concepts are what really matter in understanding this subject. The book does go further into calculus if one so chooses. I am please to fill one of the few gaps left in my pursuit of knowledge, but I warn my fellow Americans who still wallow in the archaic system that this book assumes metric.",22368

Just as a Farrely brothers film is filled with un PC humor and jokes about bodily secretions so do this book have it too. But each Farrely brothers movie has a heart ( filled with dirty thoughts nonetheless) and leaves us with a bit of a thought at the end of it. So is it with this book. Maybe there is a really good book there somewhere in Michael Gerber's head. He is having a lot of pun and minting money while doing so. Waiting to lay my dirtied hands on the next 2 books so that I can read them till Rowling writes the final book.Beware: These books are PG13 and in some sections almost R.

The fashion in which the material is presented is free of leaps and bounds which I have found is not the case at all for many other signals books.

While most of the novel deals with preparing the bomb and Ryan's own personal and proffesional problems, The last two hundred pages are among the most thrilling ever written. The terrorists' atomic bomb is only the begginning of a much larger plan to bring the world, not just the USA, to it's knees. The payoff of this novel makes the whole thing worth while. In addition it acts almost as a manual for creating your own atomic weapons, should the need arise.",47866

1,Exquisite!,"Joseph F. Lamb is generally thought of as one of the three greatest of the classical ragtime composers, the others being Scott Joplin and James Scott. It's a matter of taste, but many rank him almost as highly as Joplin, and this exquisite album shows why. Lamb's rags typically soar with wonderful, reverie-evoking melodies, unmatched in the ragtime canon. These melodies are offset by original, exciting, brisk passages. Virginia Eskin executes these gems wonderfully. She presents them always at the proper tempo and as written, without the filigrees that are so common in ragtime playing (Lamb doesn't need them!). The only drawback -- and it is a very minor one -- is that she sometimes treads a little too heavily on the pedal. This album is essential in even a small ragtime collection. In my large collection, it is one of my favorite and oft-played treasures.",25112

Usually when we hear ""fireman"", we always think about that their job is to put out fires. It is totally different than we thought, right? This book is about censorship, that is, people does not have the right to read. In that society, the firemen have the rights to burn. Not only books, but also the houses and people. In this book, an innocent woman who has being burn in her house with her books. How can the fireman has the right to burn a human life, a human life! Especially a book lover, How?",25287

The bands of those bras still fit, but the cups did not. So I ordered a 34C in this. The cups fit like I expected, but the band is way too tight. All in all, this was cheaper than comparable products I was looking at, and it seems like it will work well. But next time I will be ordering a 36C.",34413

It takes a few days to work, but she hardly leaks at all now. She isn't drugged like she was on the prescriptions. So far, we are very pleased and intend to continue using it. She weighs 18-19 lbs., so I wasn't sure how much to give her. It seems to work best if I give her 1/2 a tablet in the am and 1/2 a tablet in the pm.",47213

The battery last for about an hour. Normally, you expect a laptop battery last from three to five hours, but thise thing last only one hour. Worst of all, worst of all, now, I have hard disk problem. From time to time, I cannot copy or read data from the disk. And the disk is making horrible noise. The hard disk will die any minute.

I've been listening to this album more than 10 times and beside 'Dream Girl' and 'American Baby', they won't attract too much attention with this crappy album. Also, to make it play on my laptop was pain, as I had to install protective software to prevent illegal copies.

0,VH the 3rd and worst,"Van Halen 3. Well, after the much publicized breakups with Sammy Hagar and then a short reunion with original singer David Lee Roth, Van Halen returned with third singer Gary Cherone. Upon listening to tracks such as ""Without You"", ""Fire in the Hole"" and the horrible ""Once"", VH has lost its fire. This is by no means a change in singers. Cherone can hold up his own end but seems to be uncomfortable filling in the shoes once worn by Roth and Hagar. The real disapointment is in the music. Edward VH is no longer the guitar virtuoso that made everyone's jaw drop from 1978-1984. The guitar sound is dry and sloppy. If one were to listen to this up against such masterpieces as ""fair Warning"" or ""1984"", there is no comparison. It almost seems there are two different guitar players. It's no wonder it turned out to be Van Halen's worst selling album to date. It's just no good.",14670

How many times can you hear Tommy sing ""Crystal Ball""?Though there are some interesting acoustic moments (like ""Sing for the Day"" and Damn Yankee's ""High Enough""), this album is not worth the money. Get the ""Return to Paradise"" CD and leave it at that. Both ""Styxworld Live"" and ""Live at Riverport"" are lesser versions of that live album!",20028
1,why all the negative reviews?,"I had to double check the version of this movie that I own after seeing the overwhelmingly negative reviews on Amazon. Yep, this is the right version with Nick Cage etc. I realize I am a minority here, but I enjoyed the movie--not the best I have every seen but FAR from being the worst, as many reviewers claim. I never saw the original, so I had nothing to compare it to. I found the plot to be somewhat predictable, although the ending did have a twist to it. The acting was average; I have never thought of Cage as being a ""good"" actor, but he does OK. The plot and acting were not THAT bad, seriously. The island scenery was beautiful. The bee keeping/feminist/goddess/sacrifice aspect was a bit of a off, but not to the point where I could not enjoy the movie. I don't know why there are so many reviews absolutely trashing this movie, I would encourage anyone to give it a chance.",36770

1,Isaak's best and richest CD,"About the other Chris Isaak CD's, I have written that one CD is nearly indistinquishable from the next. They all have some brooding numbers, some rockabilly numbers, some country influenced numbers and some rockers. I also wrote that the self-titled CD ""Chris Isaak"" may be the best one and that ""Speak of the Devil"" was the most musically complex CD. Then I relistened to ""Heart Shaped World"", after not playing it for a year.""Heart Shaped World"" still sounds like a typical Isaak CD, but it stands out from the rest. It is the richest, most musically complex CD. Each song tends to grab you and stay with you. This is opposed to the other CD's where most of the songs are good but forgettable. Plus it has three monster tracks (including Wicked Game) while the other CD's only have one or two.",47367

When you spend more than $400 on a grill, it's tempting to subscribe to the philosophy that any tarp will do.You see, there's nothing more frustrating, or embarrassing, than seeing your prized grill, naked to the elements, and your discount grill cover hanging from your neighbors tree. That's the irony. Cheap cloths betray you when you need them most. When the winds are high, and the rain won't stop.This one is different. At 60 clams, it's a high-priced blankie, but it stays on. And, it's tough, so it won't puncture.Don't let your grill go naked. It's indecent.",29087

0,A 90's cable-drama quality soap-opera mishap!,"Watch this DVD if you are into Lifetime specials.This painfully inept drama is crafted with a loosing blend of melodrama, bad jokes, overwrought plot twists, and a myriad of under-developed characters. The central issue here is this film's over-broadness; I'm Loosing You takes a stab at every possible genre. Never really allowing itself enough time to explore the possibilities within one central story with well developed characters, it sprawls out its never-ending twists and turns over the lives of at least 7 different characters, lives that somehow strangely (although predictably) manage to intertwine (much in the way Crash did in 2004). The minute we become attached to a character, the film jump cuts to another; it's annoying!I give this movie 2 stars (instead of 1) because it is not a complete waste of time. It can manage to entertain you when you are under the weather and are looking for something very basic.",30522

As Hersh is a relatively well-known investigative reporter, I tend to trust what he says is true, although I have no way to verify any of it. Although others have commented that what he reveals isn't any news, I haven't read any other books about Kennedy, so it was all news to me. It seems to me that the earlier reviewers who have rejected his conclusions resent having their idol smashed to pieces. It's interesting how Kennedy's misdeeds and compulsions parallel those of the current president. Perhaps the only distinction is their family background.",13777
1,Need to Know... Now!!,"After several close calls and a couple of tragic events in my area, I decided it was prudent to know the skills covered on this DVD.

I took a CPR course at a local hospital, but felt it would be good to keep my skills fresh, just in case! This DVD is just the ticket. The instructor is clear and precise in her explanations, and she even covers the newest guidelines soon to be released by the major CPR instruction agencies. As an extra bonus, there is excellent material covering infant and child safety measures you should take around your house to prevent sudden and unexpected tragedies.

Characters are larger than life yet so flawed that one winds up not liking any of them with the possible exception of Atlanta's mayor and the kid from Oakland. It's not even worth remembering their names. The storyline starts out well enough, but the last third of the book read like the author got to a point in the plot that he realized he did'nt possess a clue as to how to end it sensibly. The ""new age"" awareness that our boy Croker falls into seemed to be a total cop-out. I got the feeling Wolfe wrote all but the last 100 pages and then decided ""I've got one hour to finish this thing"". Way too much description of what people were wearing, the food they ate, and on and on.

Violin Concerto No. 1 is B-flat major, K. 207 (1775)). This CD contains instead the Violin Concerto in D, KV271i, which is probably NOT by Mozart. See, for example, [...]",41798
0,Ouch,"I thought I was Christian until I saw this film; then suddenly the whole thing seemed absurd to me. What kind of a God would demand or be appeased by this kind of greusome suffering on the part of anyone? Rather than strengthen my faith, this film made me wince about it. That ain't good, folks.",25651
1,Masterpiece,"For the most part, this is a soft textured pastoral album.Colors, melodies, feelings, textures.... from the analog age. Way before digital or new age synthesis. Complex construction made to sound simple. Perfect. High quality performance and composition. Good voicing mix from acoustic piano, Melotron, Mini-Moog, Jan's own drumming and guest instrumentalists. One of the greatest all time Mini-Moog players, this is my favorite Jan Hammer album. Not for the Mini playing, but more for the synthysis in an overall concept, which is understatidly exquisite. So happy to have it on CD. I have the vinyl from high school. I watched for the CD a long time.Oh yes... a few AMAZING unpresidented sonic Moog moments in here.I sure miss the days of artistic expression like this. Dig ""The Animals"" !Different than here, but GREAT Jan Hammer found on ""Stanly Clarke"" by Stanly Clarke, ""Spectrum"" by Billy Cobham and of course with the original Mahavishnu Orchestra. LOTS of kickin' Mini-Moog there!!! TOPS !",22745

0,The answer to a reviewer's question,"The reviewer, ""allouciksk"" asked what is the song that is the ""'tribal' war cry song thingy"" you hear in the movie but not on the Election soundtrack. That song is ""Navajo Joe"" by Ennio Morricone. The movie starred Burt Reynolds. Ennio Morricone is famous as the composer of the spaghetti westerns soundtracks which starred Clint Eastwood. ""Navajo Joe"" is on many of Morricone's compilations.",7187

0,Music for your Elevator,"Buyer beware! From what I can ascertain, these might be Buddhist chants, but not what you might think given the front picture cover. Rather than being whisked off musically to a distant monastery or Pure Buddha Land, you are dropped kicked into elevator muzak central. The CD subtitle: ""Music for Contemplation and Reflection"" is true in the sense that you will be contemplating and reflecting why you bought this CD. I find it really hard to say anything nice about the cd because the packaging/product seems an an attempt to trick you. However, it can be said that the music is soothing and the recording clear. The tracks are delivered with an oriental feel but you can tell its a small studio production with electronic instrumental backup. This should be placed in a different musical category next to Enya or John Tesh. I'm sorry, I tried to say something nice.",22886
1,"Classic ""Recital""","Of the more than two dozen classical guitar CDs I have purchased over the past few years, John Williams' budget-priced ""Guitar Recital"" on Sony Essential Classics has to rank among the best of them. And this is a list that includes all of the Segovia Volumes, some classic Parkening discs and several other Williams titles. This recital features six beautiful Sonatas by Scarlatti, including the gorgeous E-major Sonata (K 380) which was featured on Williams' ""Romance of the Guitar"" compilation released last year. The Villa-Lobos Preludes and the Paganini works are no slouches either. Despite all the magical solo classical guitar discs in my collection from which to choose, I find myself reaching for ""Guitar Recital"" more than any of the others.",13161

0,Worst book I've read in years,"I hate it when I buy a hardcover book and I feel like I have to finish it to justify the expense. I enjoyed Pay it Forward, so I took a chance on this one. This book is loosely based on the book of Job, but at one point, a priest tells the main character, that Job's family was restored to him, this of course isn't true at all, Job had more children, but his previous family didn't come back to him. I couldn't like any of the characters, even when she went back in time to show what a lousy father he had. It started out pathetic and got more so the more I read. It finished with a Hollywood b movie happy ending. Skip this one.",12601
0,Is It Worth It?,"I have owned the Nintendo DS for about 7 months now and within that time the only game that I found worth while was Mario 64 DS. I have looked at the other games for it but they do not appeal to me due to there almost Nintendo 64 graphics. The touch screen feature is pointless if you ask me. Just one more thing to be worried about if a scratch appears on it. They should have let the PDAs just have that. In my opinion, Nintendo has always been behind with there systems. None can play DVDs or Cd's and there graphics have always kind of sucked. The only Nintendo systems that I will stick to is the NES, Super NES, and the Gamecube. In conclusion, the DS is one of the worst systems made by Nintendo and that they should just leave handheld gaming to Sony.",10750
0,Nancy Pearl is lovely,Book should be used for reference only. Each genre is so brief that any continuation of thought for any subject is abruptly ended. However it does give a very good source for selection of books which I have not read. It covers the whole spectrum of book categories so I found interest in only about 25% of the listings. If I live to be 125 and am not too demented I might read all the books she reviews. But for now I concentrate only on a few of the categories. Science Fiction and Mystery / Thrillers were the only two sections which really held my interest enough to search out the authors and the books on [...],24406

1,Easiest Ice Cream ever,"I was a little worried about buying a reconditioned ice cream maker, but when it arrived it was just like brand new, including all original packing, perfect. I was also afraid that it would be too underpowered to freeze the sorbets and ice creams adequately, but again, it was quite strong in this regard, and froze the mixtures perfectly. Admittedly, doesn't make a huge amount, but the convenience of not having to constantly add ice cubes and salt in the old wooden tub machine MORE than makes up for it. And it's WAY quieter than the old fashioned freezers. ALSO it was half the price of a new one. BUY IT!",33082
0,"Firecracker? More like ""Sparkler""","I can't believe some critic described this as ""the movie David Lynch wished he could still make."" Give me a break! It's more like the movie David Lynch is GLAD he never made. With a skilled director this could've been amazing, but the direction/editing is amateur at best. Some of the colors and shots are well done, Karen Black is great, Patton is convincing when he's playing the older brother...but the rest of the acting is horrible. It's never quite clear (whether it's due to directing &/or acting) whether Jimmy is half-retarded or just psychologically screwed up. The psycho Indian girl comes across as a cheesy Log Lady (Twin Peaks).Do yourself a favor & rent some David Lynch. This is a turkey!",767
1,Excellent series for group study!!!,"Our small church (20 - 30 who regularly attend church) had 12 participants in adult Sunday School when we did this series. This was the first adult Sunday School curriculem we had used in 10 years, and is still the favorite of all that we've done since. It can be used with new Christians, or those who have done years of Bible study. Even my eight-year-old wanted to watch the videos (available from Focus on the Family) with us(although some videos are not appropriate for children). The videos are excellent. The Leaders' Guide is awesome. Wonderful insights into God's love and our response from little-known parts of the Bible, made relevent by modern-day archeaology. I would recommend this series whole-heartedly to any church or group wanting to study the Bible.",24530

1,Gorman DELIVERS the goods and then some...,"Ed Gorman has got to be one of the best thriller writers working in the genre today. Gorman's writing is sharp and easy to read, he doesn't over-write like so many others out there; his style is simple and straight-forward.Gorman keeps the story moving along, despite some slow spots, paces it well and keeps the premise pretty basic. The only pet peeve I have is the repetitive dialogue.""Really?""""Really.""That is what I mean. He does this several times during the novel and it gets a little annoying after doing it 4 or 5 times.However, the novel is excellent overall and Gorman is a master storyteller. This is a must-read for Gorman fans.",3121
1,Six men improvising for you,"Who said there was nothing new under the sun? I give thanks every day to whatever turned me on to Ivo Papasov and these chaps are almost in the same category. Their scene is improvising electric/acoustic jazz with a taste of the leader's Greece. Exaras was born in Thessaloniki in the Macedonia prefecture of Greece, not far from fabled Thrace, the home of history's Orpheus. His instruments are the hollow body and classical guitars and his head is not in Missisippi. Oh no, he is an improviser who listens and plays in a style a little like george Benson and a lot like himself. It works quite nicely with Exaras, clarinetist Bournias and percussionist Tuncboyacian providing the Balkans taste. Bournias even trots out the zurna, a double reed Balkans bagpipe.I won't go on and on about the CD. If it sounds like your thing, buy it.",31647

0,Dreadful editing,Luckily I purchased this book for free. Normally I don't give reviews for mediocre books but the editing of this book so was bad that it needed to be addressed. The story may have been good but the editing so bad that I couldn't get past the second chapter. Please have someone edit this book if you want someone to read it. This book had the abolute worse paragraphing that I have come across. This was a real problem when the author went on to another scene/subject but forgot to finish the first. Whomever wrote the first review must not have had the same edition that I received.,26025

From great lyrics to an incredible voice, this guy sings from the heart and its obvious. You will not be disappointed in this CD. You'll want to get two and give one to a friend.

1,Einstein,"Ah, he says Einstein is religious. I don't think that's true, is it? But, that little smudge aside, this book is, as has been said before, one of the best introductions to Ch'an buddhism you can buy. It outlines the major forms of zen practice, some you probably hadn't heard of (HuaTou, MoChao), as well as some autobiographical parts, explanations of core Buddhist belief, as well as a great chapter on compassion. In fact, the book gives an exercise in compassion you can practice each day to help you out with it. You don't find that much in Zen these days.",10839

1,A best-of-career-album of country-folk,"Campbell's toned down his act from his previous two LPs, dropping the twang and rockabilly for a folkier, singer-songwriter sound. What's emerged is his huge talent. The mostly-acoustic arrangements push the lyrics to the fore, and whether they're original compositions, or the well-chosen songs of Jamie O'Hare, Campbell sings them with intimacy and conviction. Campbell's songs explore the pull between restraint and liberty, from the lonely dreams of a prisoner in ""I'm Gonna Fly,"" to the dream chasers of ""Five Texas Dollars."" His well-chosen covers include O'Hara's stunning song of farm foreclosure, ""Bidding America Goodbye."" Cambpell's voice is a beautiful melodic match for the songs, and the accompaniment frames him perfectly. Those who enjoyed Vince Gill'sThe Key, or the recent releases of Bruce Robison, will find much to enjoy here. [2000-2012 Hyperbolium]",23970

0,Disappointed,"I expected more ""mature"" writing. While there were some nice passages describing the landscape and the general ambiance of the area, the writing often felt juvenile and sophomoric when describing his impressions of people and their adventures. He leaves the impression of a smart aleck who gets his kicks from mocking people. It's not only Americans whom he mocks, but also those from Florence and Pisa as well. The juvenile delinquent that he admits he was when he was a teenager still shines through in his writing. I have no doubt that he respects his country, but his lack of respect for people would make me think twice about hiring him as a tourguide.",37045

Unfortunately is must have started as a slower leak and I didn't notice the water seeping into and underneath my hardwood floors. A whole section of my floor is now bowed up and will have to be replaced. The so called 'indicator light' that is supposed to go on when the reservoir is full never went on. And on top of that when I opened the valve cap to release the water, nothing comes out even though it's leaking out the bottom. This unit is terrible and has now cost me thousands of dollars. Do not buy this! It is not worth the money. :(",18174
