I also think that given these difficult choices and the characters conflicting motivations, the acting isn't bad. The cast members don't play the extreme melodramatic parts that this episode could have devolved toward, and they really seem to struggle to come to their decisions and to stick with them.

Tom Kennedy is one of the few like-minded bassists of the day (as was Jimmy Johnson with Holdsworth) who had the musical intelligence to follow suit with Connors' vision, and helped make this trio format not only viable, but hold-your-breath exciting.

It's essentially a cheap, generic gamepad put into the casing of a dual-shock controller. The d-pad is four separate buttons, which is pretty annoying, but you get used to it, and I actually find it preferable vs. the d-pads on most PC game controllers. Also, the l3 and r3 buttons(when you push down on the analog sticks and they make a clicking sound) are a little too sensitive, but I can't think of a single game that uses them, or a single good use for them, so it's all good. It comes with no drivers or anything, so you can't do anything crazy like map the buttons to keys or set turbo buttons or anything. It plugs and plays on pretty much any system, the last reviewer was running a G5 iMac, and I'm using a PC with Kubuntu 7.04, so if your computer has at least one USB port, the product will more than likely work.

I'd never seen Philip Quast or heard him do Javert, and I used to prefer Allam of the London cast, but now I am completely infatuated with Quast's portrayal. Javert is the best character ever invented and Quast is amazing in it. The Javert always makes or breaks the show, in my opinion. Quast is emotional in the role, but not overly. Just perfect. And naturally, Wilkinson is great. Loved his Phantom as well. If you are a Phantom fan as well - check out the original Canadian cast.

The pieces are a fine introduction to these composers: once you get turned on, you might explore their lesser known (some might say more ""difficult to enjoy"") works (Bartok's sonata for solo violin, his Miraculous Mandarin, and Kodaly's sonatas for solo cello, cello and violin, etc. and his choral works).",23411 1,Is what they say it is.,No problems.

Take something like Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots or OK Computer and strip them of everything but emotion; that comes close to describing the beauty of this effort, but not quite. I never thought I'd see something rival Nick Cave in the heartbreak record department, but Beck rises to the occasion nicely. Some songs have similar sounds and get a little repetitive, but the music is so intricate anyway that you don't really notice until you listen to it on an hourly basis, and by that time you really don't care.

Webb's Belvedere is uptight, prissy, unflappable, and decidedly unamused in even the most farsical situations which, of course, adds to the fun. One can imagine Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock recreating the role. It's an early look at the new-fangled (at that time)concept of baby sitting, brought about by women's new freedom to explore options outside the home.

Erotic, mysterious, and charming all at the same time, Rice weaves a spell of sensuality over her readers. Beauty is taken from her parents by her new master, and forced to walk, bear breasted to the neighboring kingdom. Her torments begin in earnest when they stop for a night at an inn along the way, ad of course Beauty's bondage is prominently displayed for all the local riffraff. Arriving at the castle where she is to spend the next year in bondage she's displayed naked for inspection.

The character that impressed me the most was the acting by Reagan Gomez-Preston. She has played such goody-goody roles in the past I never imagined that she could so convincingly play a dramatic role but she was a scene stealer.

They could have at least reminded people of where Lit were when they made ""Tripping the Light Fantastic"". That album shows that they are much more than just pop tarts, and I don't think you'd ever say that with a straight face about the album.In addition, they add two variations of songs; the ""Happy in the Meantime"" remix, which doesn't add much from the great original (one of the few standout tracks on ""Atomic"") and an acoustic ""Down"".

Renée Zellweger is an ok actress, but I don`t really see why so many claim she`s so excellent. She`s appropriate to the role, not terrific, and her character is nothing more than a ""been there, done that"" stereotype about the modern woman.

On the positive side, the argument that humor is a healing tonic has validity.

Some of the skills they offer are doable and can be applied by virtually anyone. The disappointment comes at the end of the book.

The things I've never quite been able to put into words -- my skepticism about organized religion, for example -- she's found the expression for it.This book can serve two purposes, I think. It is good for the loner -- even though we don't mind feeling alone, it helps to be able to shove this under someone else's nose and say, see, I'm not crazy. Really, I'm not. But it also serves to explain those strange folks who are happy to be by themselves to the rest of the world. Not all loners are child molesters or potential axe murderers.This book demonstrates in clear, direct statements the benefits of having loners in society. We actually do deliver ""the goods"" if you will.

Usually, the problems that were explained stepwise, were very simple, so harder problems were difficult to figure out by myself. I am a straight A student, and a pre-med bio major, so I don't consider myself completely stupid, but this book sometimes made me feel as though I was reading a foreign language.

At one point, Conchis explains to the narrator that the novel is a dead and worthless art form because a reader must digest numerous pages to discover a single kernal of wisdom the author wishes to impart. Yet Fowles dramatically disproves that perception. This book is magnificently rich in ideas and concepts, and challenges our approach to everything we perceive as the narrator learns that nothing is as he sees it.

I.e. - the index of symbols is very limited.Also, the author avoids some of the more interesting dream contents, such as sex.

It certainly was a far cry from Anchee Min's Becoming Madam Mao or Amy Tan's The Hundred Secret Senses. Everything written within seemed shallow and hollow, despite the overtones of sex, excitement in the big city and the world of artists. The author tries to expose the new generation x'ers of China, but I feel she has not succeeded. She has merely plodded on about herself, her deep love of Tian-Tian and the ever physically satifying love affair with Mark the Western-mystique. Whatever!

""Radio, Radio"" may be one of the greatest songs ever about the idea of ""popular music"" and its effect on us all and the double play of ""The Beat"" and ""Pump It Up"" sums up teen years pretty well. Costello is a truly original talent and this CD shows him during the early years, still coming to grips with many of the same ideas and fears that faced his liteners.

This book was what he's known for, but I was expecting alittle less Drizzt here. This is the only reason that I didn't give it five stars.

Bradwarden was another good supporting character and I didn't expect him to die either, but who knows what the rest of the plot will bring.

Now comes the title track, an uplifting trance stormer in the vein of ""The Nightfly"" (with the trademark female whisper announcing the title). After that the CD just keeps on cruising, with hit after hit. I've almost worn my copy out.Note: You _must_ check out the video for ""Deejays Fans and Freaks"" if you get a chance.

The percussive accompaniment from Glen Velez is completely sympathetic, and by and large this album avoids the New Agey meanderings of oher efforts by this same crowd.

And are we really supposed to believe a person can live to be that old and never once leave the town he was born in. How ridiculous. Jim Carrey gave a better performance in Liar Liar and those who think he should get an oscar are crazy.

This book doesn't really waste time CONVINCING you to become a vegan (no long chapters on animal abuse, etc) it just tells you how to create a well planned diet.Not that there is anything wrong with those books, but this is more straight forward nutrition. I like how it gives you an overview for every stage of life: from losing weight, to gaining weight to pregnancy. It's just very through and shows that you can be a Vegan at every stage of life.I recommend this for someone who already knows that they want to be a Vegan but isn't sure how to start or what to eat to construct a balanced diet.

But after checking out several competing brands, I decided to give the DCC 1200 a try, and so far I'm glad I did.Quite simply, this coffee maker brews a hot, flavorful cup of coffee and looks good while doing it.

The pictures and the detail was amazing considering the author had to take notes while fending off bullets.

Then add a mix of romantic love interest, nerd versus bully imagery, and a patriotic vision of a rebellion of slaves versus evil master.

I think this might be one of his best. One thing I really liked about the DVD was the commentary with Carpenter & Russell. It's very much like having them in the house discussing the movie. At one point you hear a loud ""cling"" of a drink glass or ashtray that kind of adds to that feeling.

The King of Thailand is a bit of an enigma to the rest of the world as he's the longest reigning monarch but lives much of his life behind a carefully constructed image that's only accessible through trusted royal handlers. This book does a lot of in depth examination at what motivations the royal family in Thailand has in maintaining and keeping power.

Also, the reader did not say the chapter numbers so moving back and forth between the audio and print book was very difficult. I think the chapter breaks were identified by the cheesy music.

This is the problem with the EK800, the slicing blade is actually two thin blades that sort of lock together. When we attempt to slice meats, thin slivers of meat get in between the two blades, making slicing impossible. We thought it might be our ""technique"", but we tried it on several more roasts nd no matter how we use it, food gets between the blades.

This ain't a Disney flick.Two fine actors, especially that Ray fella who needs to be in more films, take a story that never reveals too much of itself until necessary, and make it work. Corruption, drugs, honor, lies and partnership come together in a tale which ends on a very open note (another reason some people didn't like it). Is it a pleasant tale?

The music is formatted, techno. Heavy on the samples and over-sampling on the fly. It's GREAT. The skill level of the good Doctor on the didg is what I would consider outstanding, but he's not the master that David Hudson is. However, his employment and messaging the waveform is a breakthrough for the instrument, additionally he has spent time perfecting the didg by adding valves to change keys, alongwith the amplification and effects. So he's taken the didg to a new technological level, and it works wonderfully!Cut 6 and 7 are favorites. Heavy subwoofer and excellent genre' bass throughout the release.

So in order to bring all those other things with you, you'd need an additional large box! We thought this was ridiculous! The only part you can carry in the bag is the crib portion itself! To take apart these additional items (the changing table, mobile) we needed a screwdriver because the snap and lock system was so tight that we couldn't press the buttons in order to pull it apart. We're young and strong, too, so that wasn't the problem. If you want something truly portable, go for something much simpler.

She pretends to be a man and then later on she is discovered as woman when she is discovered as a woman she is suggested to investigate another woman who they think is a spy.I think is was a VERY good book.

In the end, nothing was explained well enough for the audience to sympathize with the character. Overall, this movie is a vapid attempt at cinematic depth.

My friends have come up with differing explanations (...), however these explanations are not necessarily grounded in the ""facts"" presented in the film. (...)The real kicker is that many people are watching the movie over and over, hoping to figure it out. Dustin Hoffman's character in Rain Man will sooner figure out ""Who's on first.""

Yet Ginastera's three quartets can hold their own amongst this dignified company. They are each from a different phase in his compositional career: the first from his early nationalist phase, in which Stravinsky and Bartok loomed as models, the second from the beginning of his expressionist period in which Berg was the dominating influence, the third from his final avant-garde phase. In the last quartet Ginastera uses many avant-garde techniques of his day, including aleatory passages and semitones. He also, borrowing a page from Schoenberg's second quartet, includes a soprano voice in some of the movements. Though I had never heard of the Lyric Quartet before buying this recording, they have a fine sound and give an admirable recording.",28074 1,A fun listen,"Come on, other reviewers ... lighten up!

And isn't that really what music is all about? ""Get on the Right Thing"" is a fun, ""feel good"" song ... so is ""When the Night"" and the ending ""Medley."" ""Little Lamb Dragonfly"" is a lovely, poignant song that I'm very fond of. I also think ""One More Kiss"" and ""Single Pigeon"" are quite nice. ""My Love"" goes without saying. I do admit I'm not that excited about ""Big Barn Bed"" or ""Loup"". But I say to you critics: where's the romance in your soul? Love songs don't have to be deadly serious to be good.

Seth on the other hand was described as a 'sweet, nice, thoughtful' man who apparently didn't know how to control himself or had a dual personality. On one hand he was considerate and caring - he tried to protect Belinda from danger.

A Beautiful Lie is the first album I've heard from 30 Seconds to Mars and I can safely say I don't believe them to be sub par. Leto's singing is quite good and ranges from angry and loud to haunting and soft.

Were it not for his talented parents' names, this record would never have been made. Sean's singing is whiny, and, quite frankly, the music and its accompanying videos just left me really confused. This is terrible! And this is coming from a hardcore Yoko Ono fan! Without John's name and Yoko's money, this CD would never have seen the light of day.And I have a question: an earlier review said ""If John was so great why didn't he invent hip-hop."" Not only does that comment make no sense, but for anyone to insult John Lennon is to commit mortal sin against the Church of Rock 'n' Roll. John Lennon was a genius and anyone who says otherwise is beyond hope of enjoying music. No surprise that that person liked this sad excuse for a CD.Sean, quit while you're behind.

From the heavy guitar driven rap metal of their last album to the soft and uncharacteristic material on this album.

Buddhism Plain and Simple seemed to be to the Dharma what hardtack is to bread. It grew on me and many of it's insights are beautifully written and invaluable for those studying the Dharma. However, the work remains deeply flawed because there is so much left out. I can only imagine someone picking up this book and instantly thinking they are some kind of Zen master because all there is to Zen is seeing. There is also a certain cultural superiority implied in the work, decrying what Hagen views as cultural accretions. The problem I find untenable, however, is a complete lack of notes or bibliography. Even where Hagen directly quotes someone, no sources are given, no translators, zilch, nada. This isn't Zen iconoclasm. This is just lazy writing.",10478 1,Best Jet Li movie,"While I am in fact a fan of Jet Li, this is a movie that a non-martial arts person can enjoy. It is by far the best acting he has ever done. You could see the evolution of his character's mindset, all while trying to understand kindness and humanity. Also, great action scenes!You can't go wrong with Bob Hoskins and Morgan Freeman, either. It was clearly good vs. evil, but those two guys can give nuance and depth to even the most basic of plot points.The Blu-ray version is clean and crisp. No pixelation even with the intense action and darker surroundings of the fighing pit and Freeman's apartment. Nice extra's as you get a chance to hear Jet Li's take on the character and why he wanted the role so much.

The comic is a masterpiece and you can tell that the filmmakers realize this. This film takes the comic and stretches it a bit further into what you'd expect to come out of Warner Bros animated Batman film. It really is an even more comprehensive story, if that is even possible. The comic is 4 issues of absolute greatness. The thing to note is that this film is only the first part of the story, which is really the first two issues of the comic. At 1 hour and 30 minutes you can tell the whole story will be an operatic masterpiece when the 2nd part is released. The voice casting is phenomenal. Peter ""Robocop"" Weller is great as an aged, bitter and psychotic Batman. I'd say it's one of the best DC Comics animated films.

Well, I've got news for Mr. Young: his writing and wit bears little similarity to Parker's or Benchley's.

These people are trying to sell some sort of attitude, but they aren't putting anything real or helpful behind that attitude. Personally, it makes me very angry.

I am glad that Warner Bros. chose to delight old and new Prince fans with this Jazzy collection of music.

There is nothing like the sound of a live band conducted and lead the by the Artist himself. Tracks like When the Lights Go Down and There is Lonely will set the mood for a romantic evening. The rest of the songs are just wonderful. Special applause to She Spoke to Me and 5 Women. It is worth the purchase and will definately become an all time classic.",14296 0,Useless,"For anyone who has taught writing seriously as a process of human responsiveness to reality, this book will seem simply silly. It is a throwback to a rigid conception of reality as having only one meaning, only one mode of expression (and if your mode does not conform to mine, beware). Not only is the style of writing pretentious in the extreme, the student example which is cited throughout the book contains a huge, really huge, compositional mistake, which makes me wonder just how much classical rhetoric depends on a priori bias. The book is impossible to teach because it assumes that students already have in mind the basics of writing as process, an odd assumption since neither ISI nor the school from which this author comes values anything as modern as process. It sounds too much like progress.

I was thrilled that a masterful piece of literature survived such a harrowing experience and was published years after the author's death. Unfortunately, I have been extremely disappointed. I find myself loathing the characters. A majority of the characters represent the upper class and are portrayed as snobby, arrogant, and inconsiderate fools. I haven't quite finished the book yet, but am forcing my way through it. I'm reading this for a book club that I run. If not for the book club, I would have given up long ago.

The age group seemed great, 14 -22. I wanted something that I could use in college and this appeared perfect. Well I was very much disappointed. The monologues are boring and corny; and not even corny enough to be funny, just bad. This might be good for a drama class taught by a teacher who finds everything art and expression, but if you are looking for audtion monologues or a performance monologue-look somewhere else. I have made a list of good acting books, and this certainly doesn't make it. The pieces in here are unrealistic, and even the best actor could not make them entertaining. Most show little emotion and are very bland. The others that do show emotion, show only one and are never complex. The intros to the monologues are never near enough for you to understand what would provoke these speeches.

That's certainly an appropriate adjective for Air's ""Talkie Walkie,"" which has some breathtakingly elegant moments. The French duo creates dreamy landscapes of mellow pop with acoustic and electronic touches. ""Cherry Blossom Girl"" soars kite-high with a catchy chorus and strong melody, while the dark and mysterious ""Run"" has interesting horror-show synths and hypnotic spoken vocals. The latter song could very well be my favorite on the album. ""Mike Mills"" and ""Surfing on a Rocket"" are just as good and noteworthy. To peg ""Talkie Walkie"" as mere chillout fare would do both this album and Air injustice.

The film itself also stars Bjork , and when questioned if she was breaking her vow of never appearing in another film, she said it was more preformance art than an acting film. Well, I quess that's agreeable. The CD itself is full of odd arrangements, some with or without Bjork and her piercing voice, sounding much like the Medulla sounds. There are also moments where the old japaneease instrument, the sho, is put to good use as well.

She was an early walker at 10 months, so she reached a point of wanting to move around herself. It could last longer depending on the baby. Look online to see the exact distance the feet should be from the ground when bouncing. The bouncer is pretty light and easy to move from door to door.

Mr Diamond takes nothing less than the entire human history and for his understanding he use for good an absolutely original approach that, supported in the findings of several sciences, put the root of all in a distant past of which seldom an historian had given too much attention before. And if that was not enough, he does so with cristal-clear prose that makes you read it with the same rush from beginning to end as if you were reading a top best seller writter, at his best.

Instead I found myself plodding through (as I read it) Mr. Goldhagen's personal quest to demonize an entire people as intrinsically evil with a predispositon to perpretrate this crime. Mr. Goldhagens language was also a barrier, as he seems to have taken great pains to incorporate jargonisitc language at every possible juncture - Being a Harvard student I guess this isn't surprising - He must have scored 800 on his SAT Verbal and wants everyone to know it.

It seems as if the energy and originality Manson once exuded has reached its peak. Now he's at the plateau, and I fear there is no redemption to come from him. I do like the pictures in the liner notes, even though there also nothing entirely new from them (however, I'll give them a star).

The principle instrument on this album is the berimbau, a single-string instrument used in the dance/martial art of Capoeira. Some of the tracks demonstrate primarily the sounds of the berimbau and capoeira. There are other tracks that use the kalimba (African ""thumb piano""), while another is an Indian influenced duet between Dinho Nascimento on the berimbau and Krucis on the sitar. There's even a berimbau blues track which is interestingly different. Overall, the CD has a bluesy/worldbeat sound.

It also contains a processed version of the concepts from various philosophies mainly Taoism. Oh also he preemptively criticizes all critics and by that i mean anyone who approaches the work with critical thinking so that's convenient. The useful ideas of this book can by summarized as 1. the concept known as the body compass and 2. various concepts from Tao Te Ching.",46820 0,Beware of Misleading Book Titles,"This book was a surprise. The title is a familiar quote from Jesus as He teaches timeless truths. The reference on the cover to ""Abraham"" reaches out to seekers from most major religions, of which we have ""Father Abraham "" in common. The book is not related to either. Neither is it a lesson on the Law of Attraction (as in ""The Secret"") that has recently made popular on the Oprah show. The author's abraham is the name of spirit entities. I don't like to resent the authors for using Jesus, Abraham and Oprah to sell their books; however,........ I made the mistake of ordering 2 of their books and the other is also empty rhetoric based on nothing. Thank you for asking us to share.",2011 0,This book is ridiculous,I don't really know what to say about this book except that it is utterly ridiculous. The writing style is very strange. It's like all the sentences and thoughts are truncated. It's as if a seven year old child is writing this book and describing their life in the least amount of words and descriptions possible. I don't know. It was just totally bizarre. I'm glad I got it for free or else I would have been WAY WAY ticked off.,36116 0,Pretty bad damage potential,"In the instructions it says to remove from painted surfaces and wallpaper promptly. Also says that remover may affect some plastic surfaces. I guess that that's fair warning. I was removing some hard as rock silicone/acrylic caulk from around my bathtub. The 3M stuff softened it up a fair amount but I still had to apply five times, sometimes leaving the stuff on overnight. As I was cleaning up after a couple of days, I found that where caulk remover had dripped and stayed on the fiberglass tub (Jacuzzi Whirlpool), it had etched out chunks of the finish. Looks pretty bad, big scars on the edges of the tub.

Even if it's cool to get this one, because of radio or MTV or whatever, this CD is really good. I listen to a lot of Industrial-metal bands, I mean bands like Ministry, Godflesh, Prong, White zombie, Pitch Shifter (pre-'dot com' album), and not techno-pop combos like Dope, Orgy, Pitchshifter (post-'dot com' album) or Powerman 5000 (far better before their last album). And I must admit that this one is not bad at all, on the contrary. This remind me a lot of what did Prong (what a fantastic band), mixed with White Zombie ('Astro Creep'-era). It's not too catchy, and the voice can be really aggressive, I like it a lot. It's not on the same level as some masters as Godflesh or Ministry, but for a first shot... impressive. I hope only that they won't turn to more mainstream and less original, as bands like Fear Factory (I'm sad) or Pitch Shifter (it's a shame to wayste such a talent).",3471 0,Painful - I'd rather be at the dentist,"I loved the book, but this movie was painfully slow.

One of the prettiest love songs I've heard in a long while. It is more of a playful pretty love song. But it is my fave. ""Don't Call Me Baby"" reminds me of the song ""Stop"" by the Spice Girls. Proabably the same writers. I was amazed that Dave from the Eurythmics worked on this album, as did the man who engineered a lot of the Eurythmics' albums. I always liked the New Radicals and I like his rock contribution to the album. For some reason the song and video for Scream IYWGF always reminds me of that Garbage song ""Special.""

Placido Domengo and Birgit Nielson in this same work that is vastly underrated in the US. Both their big arias are wonderfully recorded. In the case of Miss Nielson ""Ocean der Ungenhauer"" is a better take than on her single recording. It is amazing to me that ""Von Jugend in Dem Kampfgefeld"" is not part of the standard tenor repertory. Domengo is so great here that chills go up my spine.

I will not go to the closet I put it in; it is an Ugly Place. This coffee maker is horribly made. The lid has to be pried off of the carafe, and its hinges appear to be so weak and apt to break that you find yourself preforming an oxymoron and prying gingerly. The filter takes an act of God to remove and put back onto the machine; you have to lift and turn and adjust and pray that *that* hinge will not break in the process. (because it, too, is a thin little piece of plastic) Worst of all, the carafe doesn't fit onto the hot plate. It sits askew and no amount of adjusting will make it flush with the plate.

I was too young to understand much of it when I watched him play but I got the chance to try it myself when he put it on his laptop a couple of years ago. And yes, the graphics were laughably bad but the game still hooked me right from the beginning.It was the first rpg I'd ever played and still the best one I've ever played. The storyline drew me in and I've never cared for any characters the way I did for these ones, especially the main characters, Cloud and Aeris. I must've spent a hundred hours grinding everyone, getting all the weapons, materia, limit breaks, and just exploring every little thing along the way. My brother raved about it back when he first played it and now, I'm raving about it.

Must have CD for the sabbath fan, the first official live release endorsed by the group with Ozzy on vocals...20 years after his leaving.

Those in First Class were pampered endlessly across the Atlantic, and this is the lot of America's First Lady, Eleanor Roosevelt, as she sails home on the French liner, Normandie. But it's not going to be a peaceful voyage. Someone murders the Russian Ambassador. Potential assassins seem to be everywhere until Eleanor, with the aid of young John F. Kennedy, son of America's Ambassador to Great Britain, unravels a maze of deceit and danger to trap the killer. As in other Eleanor Roosevelt mysteries, the First Lady solves the murder with grace and brilliance. Along the way, we meet a covey of famous people and get a look at real luxury in travel.

The CD contains some very ominous music which to me sounded sort of scary at times. There was also some soothing and quite calming tracks in the soundtrack. It has a good mix of both types. My favorite track is number one. I do not think that track is the Main Titles though. I think its track 8 that is the main titles where it spells ALIEN. Probably other than that minor mix up, the album was awesome. Jerry Goldsmith is just brilliant. People might get sticker shock from how much this CD is. I have seen prices from $50 and up. That is really expensive for just a CD with 10 tracks. If you are a soundtrack collector or like the score from Alien, I would save up some money. It might sound ridiculous at first spending that much money on a CD, but once you get, you will be satisfied.

Unfortunately there is also a lot of really bad quack science interspersed through out the book that I find really off putting. Two right off the top of my head are the idea that Westerners need to eat meat and consume alcohol, and that we normally only think with the left side of our brain.Further from it's obsession over the forebrain and brain stem et al to it's comments on the macrobiotic diet, the text is firmly rooted in the late 1970's making it dated at best.Combined with the reptition (how many times is the word ""coffin"" used throughout the text?) and the disjointed feel of the question and answer format, it is in my view just not a very good introduction.",9903 1,"Even better than ""Are You With Me?""","I thought that their last cd was great, than i heard this one!

However, we hardly ever use this feature as it doesn't seem to do anything worthwhile. Almost invariably we want the fan to blow in if it's cooler outside than inside, or to blow out if we're trying to eliminate an odor (e.g., from cooking).We paid $40, and for this price it offers reasonable quality; it's plastic of course, and an off white color.

The low point is the Sonny Bono song ""Bang, Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)"", an awful song even by Bono's standards. Mr. Szabo attempts to sing this one (and fails miserably), I'm very sorry to report. He also overdubs his jangly nasal guitar here, apparently oblivious to the resulting contrapuntally random cacophony.The record gets worse as it goes along, but its only cut of interest is the rambling ""Gypsy Queen"", and that only because Santana went on to record a much more coherent and appealing version of the tune.

But is it?Allusions to rape, gory fight scenes, heroes stealing money from bridgekeepers, and a rather negative view on the meaning of life (or lack thereof in Eragon's case). And let's not forget the skewered baby that was almost eaten by a crow!Face it. It's not a decent children's book.

You can see it from other reviews, but seriously the main idea of this book is that there are two terrible evils in our world: 1) Religion (especially Christianity) and 2) White, male men - no make that White, male, American men (Canadians men are apparently a little better.) The book is frankly downright silly; just about every liberal / politically correct idea in the world is addressed: Male voilence against women, homosexuality, bisexuality, tons of environmental issues, socialism, and on and on...I can understand making a social commentary, but this is one of the most cliche pieces of liberal dribble I have ever read.",49305 1,Well worth the money.,This was a birthday gift for my brother Jim.

KatieMac says all heterosexual sex is rape? Redbook tells about ""The sex skill men adore, and how to do it well."" There is something about squabbles between women that men just can't resist. Maybe it is the notion that they are fighting over us; that for all their lofty demands, what they really want is our attention.Anyway, I think women get along just fine. They want what they want and publishers are smart enough to give it to them. The only real stress in women's lives (qua women) is trying to convince themselves they want something more than a high-status male and lots of children to secure her place in his cozy household.This book has entertainment value but not much else.

Unfortunately I am rather past the age of romantic illusions myself, but nevertheless I like the mix of rhythms, modal melodies, and jazz. My personal favourite is 'Jhoomo Gao' (Let's Dance and Sing), a lively wedding song in 3/4.The other songs generally follow a formula of a steady 4-in-a-bar rhythm, with long-held synth chords, soulful vocals, instrumental solos, and lively and varied percussion creating a rich and varied texture.

And someone thought enough of this man's art to devote an art gallery where his works are collected and displayed (outside of Chicago.) He taught art and made it his lifes work. He was a very accomplished artist. And he made a living from his art. How many can say that? Maybe what we should say instead is that this book does or doesn't suit us at the moment. Since it still is sought after long after Mr. Vanderpoel's death I would have to say it has it's merits. After seeing paintings of Mr. Vanderpoel's, I think he was a pretty good artist and certainly did what he was driven to do and ranks among the better American artists.

I think this story is more of a tale between a son with a father who is mentally ill. I think the Vietnam War is just a story that occurred and had a part of the drama. It's something that just makes this man more interesting in his character.

FYI, my OS X install and the drive firmware are up-to-date, the firewire cables are good, and the usual troubleshooting stuff has already been tried.

The book has a melodramatic flare, perhaps due to the era it was written: Nearly every day of their 3 years is fraught with high seas, gales, pounding surf, murderous locals, malarial mosquitoes or killer ticks entirely covering their bodies -- and always a crafty or miraculous escape (except from malaria). Although there are respites describing friendly, hospitable ""natives"" they meet along the way, this was a disappointment after reading their later Quest for the Lost City, a better-written book in which they describe how they walked and camped from San Diego to southern Mexico and then spent month upon month exploring the jungles bordering Mexico and Guatemala.",8666 0,ID-Link is a D-Ddont,"I bought this router to replace a Belkin Basic unit that was too slow and had limited range.

The first half hour is very slow, but it builds to a tremendous payoff! When the violence strikes, it's quite shocking. The location work was breathtaking, especially towards the end of the film when our hero wonders through an adandoned factory. The film does require patience, which will probably be met with a lot of disdain for today's A.D.D. cinema-aficionados, but if you're looking for a different kind of movie-watching experience, I whole-heartedly recommend this flick!

He does an incredible job of portraying how things actually get decided on and done. This is fascinating reading, really enjoyable, and it teaches us how politics in this country is really works. It is very well-written; it is as enjoyable to read as any fiction, yet the author does not compromise the integrity of the facts. He delivers a lot of heavy and disturbing material very professionally.Some might consider Reisner's concerns over water issues to be alarmist. I suppose we will find out about that aspect in the future. Even if his concerns over water issues turn out to be far off base, there is still more than enough worthwhile material here for thorough study of this book.",28454 1,Gateway Laptop Keyboard,"The keyboard was a great fit, but difficult to install.

Most music in recent years has sounded boring to me, but this song is, I would go far enough to say, better than alot of music from the 1980s.

He never said He was a way. A Course Miracles makes the person of Jesus Christ nothing more than a way. A Course in Miracles receives it's only credibility from using the name of Jesus. Unfortunately it ends there. The use of Jesus' name is an obvious attempt to attract Christians, but this book is far from Christian.For anyone seeking good Christian literature, this is not it! A Course in Miracles is much the same as other new age writings. It is warmly presented as a great revelation of truth, but falls short quickly after you pass the dust cover.If you have been hurt, ill, or lost and seek guidance from a Course in Miracles, you'll find yourself in the same place at the end. The Hope you seek can be found in only one place and that is in Jesus Christ, the Living Word.",28470 0,Edward Lee's worst,"This is the worst horror novel of Edward Lee's career.

I was transported by the magical voice of Toby Stephens into the world of the main character Stephen Wraysford as he finds love and turmoil during WW1. I found all the characters well done/read and the story quite gripping. Excellent sound effects made me feel as if I were there. It also made it very easy to visualize. I am constantly amazed at the excellent job done by Toby Stephens. As with his other audio work he portrays such emotion in his voice that he makes the readings come alive. Not a story for everyone due to the graphic discriptions of the war.

However, Gothic is a drone IMO i.e., Hellfire. They've taken the music from 'dark' to 'bleek'and more boring.More than likely, ""Touch Me"" with Chrissie Hynde will blow the drone interpretation away! Ah, this rockin' mainstreamer <--NOT, Chrissie, is what rock is fundamentally all about, and given the Pretenders' cover of Jimi Hendrix's ""Roomful Of Mirrors, it'll be right on! I'll choose ""Touch Me"" from the covers right now.No one else can do Peace Frog nor Soft Parade like the Doors - that's an absolute! And, not all Doors' music is that entertaining nor meaningful anyway so if one likes droning so be it, but if one likes rock 'n' roll, go for Chrissie, and perhaps the other so called 'mainstreamers' will have grasped the idea, not like Gothic - simply picking up on the dark element of the Doors turning it into drone.",32441 1,EXCELLENT BOOK!!!,If there was a way to vote for 10 stars this book would definitely get it.

The layout is more thought out, the artworks presented are sufficiently annotated and marked. On other hand, I wonder whether the makers of this book feel like they have to fill up more pages and therefore sometimes go amiss in their choice of good fantasy art. Nevertheless, this is an excellent collection of works of fantasy (and fantastic) art, especially good as a first step in the exploration of the field.

The mid-range is clear, the highs are crisp and the low-end is surprisingly rich and detailed (you can hear the bass line and kick drum of a rock song perfectly, and it even has a little punch to it.)I did notice some minor distortion in the bass frequencies at medium to high volumes, but only in certain parts of a few songs. I reduced the bass slightly in the EQ section of the iPod and now it sounds great even at higher volume.

Even in this new world, Max was able to use his own method of deduction of how things worked.Again, although the language (""adamant"" didn't seem a word that a young boy would use, for example) and violence seemed a bit adult for younger readers, Willingham put together a great story that will be enjoyed by many.",28087 1,"Real Western, Real Horror","I can honestly say I have not seen another film quite like this. It is a real horror western, and blends the two genres very well. The costumes, dialogue, setting, and casting all come together to create a very genuine Old West tableau... which is then invaded by a genuinely creepy, shockingly weird menace from beneath the earth. The horror of this story is visceral, bleak, and uncompromising. It is not a wall-to-wall gorefest, but once bad things start to happen they do not stop.

The bottom of the net is not properly weighted, causing it to rise off the bottom when being dragged. Of course this means that the minnows swim out under the net. After 6 passes through water dense with minnows I only managed to catch two of them when I should have caught thousands. If you actually want to catch minnows do NOT buy this product. When I complained about the net's performance to the sales clerk his response was to buy lead weights and sew them to the bottom. This net should be properly weighted at the factory, why should I pay for and install extra weights to make this product work? I returned the net for a refund and will continue to use my 20 year old net until I can find one to replace it that actually works.",21427 0,Better left at the bottom of the ocean,"Ok...I actually bought the instant download of this, and actually watched it through once.

Standard written Arabic is thicket of grammar that makes German look like a walk in the park. Spoken Arabic is a simpler affair but dialects vary from country to country. So teachers of Arabic have to decide whether to start with grammar (A&S;'s approach) or with conversation (Al Kitab's).I am using this book at NYU. I, along with my classmates and professor, complain about it's over emphasis on grammar, its typos and questionable organization. The strict grammar rules lend themselves to simple presentation in tables, but the authors generally fail to use this approach. Also note that you will need to buy the CDs. They are appallingly expensive given the poor production quality.If your goal is to read classic Arabic literature A&S; is probably your best bet.

So we solved two problems at once by getting these Schlage Satin Nickel Door Knobs and we got the privacy locks for all the doors. It amounted to five knobs altogether. They're good knobs.

The sounds Michaela mixes in, combined with her distinct voice, passionate piano, and rip-your-soul-open lyrics, makes it a surreal experience. It didn't take me long to become a fan!

Carthage refused to help Hannibal in an ancient version of tax revolt, but Hannibal still gave Rome decisive defeat after defeat after defeat.

As for the critical reviews, I would like to clarify that my local newspaper's critic David Elliott did like the film, giving it three out of four stars vice the two I mentioned in my pervious review.

However, I would recommend `Kno vs. Hov: The White Album' produced by Kno of CunninLynguists over DJ Danger Mouse's `The Grey Album'. It gives one feel to the CD and the production overall might outshine the likes of Kanye West, Just Blaze, Eminem, and The Neptunes.) Almost any song could pass as a single. Jay-Z decides to be a little more personal on this CD, but still doesn't seem to say much. Despite nearly ten years of Jay-Z, I still don't feel as if I truly know him. Still, you can't deny that Jay-Z went out on top and should stay in retirement.(3.5/5 mics)",34393 1,It's interesting,This is an interesting book.

The speakers produce excellent sound, and have great volume control. The size of the On Stage is amazing, it is so, so small you can (at least I can) hold it in the palm of your hand.

The dogs are great in the film they do a great job. The acting is good from Paul Walker and Jason Biggs is ok but he got on my nerves at times maybe it's that I just see him in american pie. The movie is really sad and will defently make your eyes tear up and the film is good for kids but maybe too sad for really young, the film alos works for the older audience which is really good.

My cat drinks out of every faucet in the house and begs, literally, for taps to be turned on so he can drink out of them but he stares at this contraption, sniffs, and walks away. He hasn't tried it, not once, even when it's just sitting water. Such a bummer to have spent $70 on the full kit which I thought was a great deal. I keep hoping someday he'll warm up to it.

Tan Suang U's story is told as a compilation of letters he wrote to his mom in China in a period of 20 years from his arrival in Bangkok in 1945.A typical tale of rags to riches.Typical of many ""ugly Chinamen"", Tan's observations and criticisms of Thai culture are candid and unrefined but also refreshingly honest. Proud of his culture which emphasis honest hard work and frugality, he is destined to be disappointed as within just one generation, his family's cultural identity is lost.Botans writing style is fluent, brilliant, vivid and full of color. This book won the Siatu literature prize in 1970 and it is one of very few novels that were translated from Thai.I know it is out of print for a long time but it is worth waiting and looking for.",4757 0,Don't waste your time,"Talk about disappointing! Goldberg is supposedly an up-and-coming writer, and after hearing about her for a while I decided to check out Long Quiet Highway.In fiction, it's usually a good idea to make your main character an enjoyable one. In non-fiction, you may not like the main character, but she should at least have some redeeming qualities. Goldberg is not only difficult to like or sympathsize with, she is also boring. I forced myself to finish reading, but the only thing that I could remember afterwards was the author complaining about how difficult it was to go to school because all of the other kids where eating peanut butter and jelly sandwhiches while she was forced to eat tuna.

But I was hesitant. Could Biggins repeat the Magic of the first book? After reading The Emperors Coloured Coat, I would answer ""sort of"".The book is roughly divided into three sections: Austria/Balkans/Asia. The first third is true to the form of A Sailor of Austria. An edifying slice of history told in a delightful fashion. Every page includes something fascinating about the Austro Hungarian empire as well as something laugh out loud funny. The other two thirds don't achieve the same level though. A long series of tribulations and predicaments become rather tedious. By the end of the book I had rather forgotten how enjoyable the first third of it was.",9127 0,Fire Hazard,"I bought this for my 14 yr old daughter and gave it to her for christmas.

You can memorize where some of the main buttons are, but if you are navigating the features of a blu-ray disc, you need to be able to see what your are pressing. At only $20 when I bought it, I can see why adding a light wouldn't be cost effective.Either way, I'm glad I have this for now.

It tells you everything you need to know about your run so you can plan future runs. The 301 comes with a USB connection to the computer (as opposed to a serial connection). Just this feature alone justifies buying it over the 201 model if you want to download the information to your computer. I have had this for 2 years and have loved it every time I run. The only issue I have with it is its satellite signal strength. Sometimes it has a hard time getting locks on satellites but I can't justify spending the extra $ to get the 305 just for the infrequent times that it has weak satellite signals.,8782 1,You guys are full,"I don't go for any Hollywood so-called blockbuster crap and I consider myself intellectual and not easily swayed to just any movie or work of art that doesn't have a workable sensitive morale relevant to our times, so yes, I disagree with the poor designations here. I thought this movie was very good and it had a good message relevant to human civilization itself and its history. So ok a few scenes were corny but the overall movie was nicely done and it was much more than a story about a global disaster.

Probably he had little time to compose the score for Bille August's film adaptation of Victor Hugo's masterpiece ""Les Miserables"", but Poledouris managed to create what in my opinion is one of his best works.The main theme -as heard first on 'Valjean's Journey' -is truly inspiring in spite that it's reminiscent of the main march from ""Starship Troopers"". However, in here, it has much more dramatic impact as it is very touching. There is also a secondary theme heard in the final minutes of 'Vigau', but widely used in 'The Barricades'; this piece of music sounds very minimalist as seven notes are repeated a lot, but it is truly epic in fashion.This is perhaps one of Basil Poledouris' classics, at the same level of ""Conan The Barbarian"", ""Robocop"", and ""The Hunt For Red October"".

Appetite for Destruction was good enough to save metal long enough to have people love it for the next 5 years. Then Nirvana came into the mainstream. Back to the review, Slash is a great lead guitarist who has little flaws and Izzy has a great rhythem. Duff is a bassist of thickness, intensity and loudness with Axl's screaming vocals and raunchy (awesome) lyrics. Steve Adler was no Neil Pert but he was not bad either, I guess he made the songs more intense. Some songs however, have repetativeness and thats why this got 4 stars.

My husband has a watch that doesn't need batteries and he is very satisfied with it. Second would be that it has a marker for each hour. I've had a dress watch for years that only has a marker for the 12, 3, 6, 9 hours and it is a little difficult to know the exact time. Next would be the bling! Not only does it have crystals around the face, but also on the bracelet links.I read all the customer comments and agree with the customer who said it was prettier in person than on the web.

More often than not, the incorrect placement or omission of these nitty gritty symbols can lead to miscommunication and the result is often diasastrous and comical.Lynne Truss presents the different punctuation marks in different chapters which include illustrations of wrong usage, explanations of the history and evolution of the punctuations and of course, the correct usage.

In the first (and best) of three long stories, James imagines himself inhabiting a world inhabited by robotic versions of the people he knew as a child. His interactions with these robots is intended to give us some deeper understanding of our humanity. It works on some level, even if the only real conclusion we arrive at is that people are mean-spirited jerks who don't deserve to live. The second tale, a meandering non-adventure featuring James and his wife, their talking cat, and a misunderstood snowflake, never really gets off the ground, and the third story, about a frog, a fly and a malevolent toadstool, reads like Jon Lewis' late, great True Swamp after about a dozen bong hits.

Her stories are a bit ""weird"" and also heavy on religious themes, so they may not appeal to everyone. But just for her sheer brilliance as a writer, everyone should read a few of her stories. I recommend Revelation, Good Country People, and Everything That Rises Must Converge.",6397 0,Didn't get the E-Clips,I ordered 3 and they arrived without the e-clips.

He has a more sober writing style than Al Franken, but don't be fooled by the lack of humor: this is actually an even less consequential book than ""Lying Liars.""

The can has silly frog cartoons and text on it and is worth buying just for the novelty.

The wasabi coating is strong enough to make you sit up and take notice, but as is normal for wasabi, the heat doesn't last for more than a second or two. The only complaint I had with this product is how many broken pieces there were. Nearly 1/3 of the can was missing it's outer coating and the bottom of the can was full of coating ""crumbs"".

It is not that the material is hard, it is that it caused me to reflect so much that I had to spend time digesting all the stuff that it brought back to my mind.Yes it is somewhat repetitive and relies on a lot of quotes- but- big deal?

The store where I had purchased it was then out of business so I never replaced it. After no success with the orthepedic pillows, I searched for a buckwheat pillow from Amazon and found this one. It is very comfortable and now my neck and shoulder pain are gone. I would recommend this pillow because the buckwheat moves to conform to your shape.

It doesn't really sound like the Used though, which for some reason a lot of negative reviews have said.

First, the author bragged at a conference it had been banned from several schools/libraries. She was so proud of it. Second, as a mother I wanted to know what the teen's mother didn't know. I must admit I couldn't put the book down. It is easy to read. I felt like the book reflected what many teens go through and the importance of parental involvement. When bad things happen, like the perve boys she encounters, she deals with it well.

It has similar suction power, albeit through a smaller hose, but is vastly quieter than the ""red screamer"". The filter stays clean longer with fine dust due to the use of a 15 gallon bag prefilter, and the two stage filtration exhausts cleaner air than any single stage unit I have tried. The wheels allow for easier movement than the typical four swivel casters on most ""shop vacs"".

It comes with a variety of other functions such as stop watch, pedometer, calories measurement. Shaking the player resets some of the counters and there is a sport mode so that you lock the counter.

A haunting story, beautifully filmed, with a superb cast. Cinematography and music score could not have been better. The sound and video quality were so good that the Blu-Ray version is not necessary. On the second disk, there is an an additional section of scenes, around ten minutes, that was included. These extra scenes, however, were not necessary for the story. The brief interviews with the author and several cast members was also enlightening.

The rules of the game are tough (absolutely NO talking unless it's your turn), and that's supposed to help with communication. That's OK ... it actually sometimes works.

Marillion continue on with the more straight ahead rock approach of Radiation, but this time out have actually written some incredibly moving songs. The pace is more gentle, more stately and refined. The old prog-rock signatures have long been put out to pasture. Marillion are starting to stake their claim along such eternal greats as the Beatles and The Who. Only problem: why hasn't the US woken up to this fact?",31259 0,Interesting,"I saw Oklahoma in the film with Gordon MacRay years and years ago, when I was in college as a music major and I loved it. I was already acquainted with most of the music and the story. But I guess I'm used to that older version.

Also there were characters in the show, that I didn't remember. I don't recall the foreign salesman at all, but it was many years ago.The chorus and the music were pretty good, but the dance sequence seemed very different and much longer than I remembered. I also don't remember the auction or the many scenes with Judd. But again I haven't seen it in a long time.

While it does not have the power of ""Felicia's Journey"" it is still William Trevor at his best. Those looking for a slam-bang mystery novel full of adventure and many car-chases etc. will not find this their cup of team. Trevor is to be read slowly and often to be reread. But the characters do ring true and the images that he paints remain vivid in my mind. For those who have enjoyed Trevor's writing in the past, this will not disappoint. For those who are reading him for the first time, this does take some patience and much concentration.

I *thought* it was going to be a live recording of songs culled from their Farewell Tour. There is certainly no reason to believe otherwise from the title of the album. However, when I get to the store to purchase it, it had a large sticker on the front cover ""contains studio versions of songs Alabama is performing on their farewell tour."" What kind of garbage is that? How many compilations has this band put out?If I sound angry about this, it is because, plenty of people will order this from Amazon and other online CD stores and not know that they are getting the same studio versions that have been rehashed over and over again. I have lost all respect for this band and am glad they are hanging it up. Why would they call what is essentially another greatest hits album ""Farewell Tour?""Buyer beware.

Genny does not understand the culture of the border. A Spanish speaking Anglo, sincerely interested in Mexican culture, will have no difficulty being accepted by Mexicans near the border, and for this, the book is believable. It is definately an eye opener, and very informative regarding Mexican culture. Several passages discussing food found my stomach growling lol. My hat is off to Mr. Ford. He accepts responsibility for his actions, is not afraid to face the consequences, and all the while tells an interesting and sometimes amusing story.",48797 1,Great little horror film!,I rented this movie yesterday and really enjoyed it! It's moody and spooky and has some great scares but it also has an intricately plotted story -- something that is sorely lacking in many horror movies these days. It stars a cute blonde actress named Tatum Adair who is very good in the film and successfully pulls off a wide range of emotions.

Information about the technical qualities of digital video cameras was also very helpful.After a year, this book may be out of date, but for right now, I think it will help beginners and intermediates.

And she seems to been there and done it. Unfortunately, (I am currently at page 68) I find the style of writing very fraustrating. Rebecca Riordan makes simple subjects and concepts that could be explained easily, extremely difficult to grasp. I could not explain to you so far what I have read. She begins her book with relational database theory, not properly explaining what she is talking about and then using this as the basis for the rest of her book. I found the glossary quite useless and most definitely incomplete. In a word - gobbledegook. She might know what she is talking about, but I sure don't!

What a dreadful wasted opportunity. If this is the quality of re-releases on ""Collectables"" we are better playing the old vinyl.

The coffee is wonderful, after you put it in the microwave to make it hot enough. The product, however, is another story. While taking it out of the box, I was afraid of breaking it. When I started brewing it vibrated so loudly that I woke up my wife -- she thought I had my electric sander going. The pod holder snaps broke off after the third cup so I took it back to the store where I bought it and got another one. This one lasted longer. By the end of the week the pod holder broke in two from top to bottom. I have decided that it is just not worth the trouble or the cost since I can still use my stainless steel perk pot.My suggestion -- If this plastic toy is going to be kept on the market, the pod holder and lock should be of stainless steel and some how get more heat in the brew.Note: I am taking mine back to the store to get my money back!Ron, the coffee lover",19846 1,A book of uncommon wisdom,"I must admit that I don't usually purchase or enjoy very many ""leadership"" books, but this one is truly different. This book is written in a quick-read style and is very easy to understand. The principles are easy to remember and hard to apply, but have had a transformational impact on my life. I believe readers will find that if they have the guts and discipline to consistently think about ways to apply these principles, they will see a major shift in how people respond to them in their family life, business life, or church life. I have already shared my copy of the book with others, and they have each pointed out specific aspects of the book that they say completely changed their way of looking at the world.I think this book makes great gifts for people you work with or family members.

The lack of variety makes it boring after a while. The other members of Kai seem to get lost in the backround. You can't really pick out any one else's voice.I have to say I liked the first album much better. The mix of songs, fast and slow, kept my interest. Also, the arrangements on the first on allowed us to hear more of the individual voices.I'm disappointed that the new album focuses on one singer, because everyone who has the first CD knows that the other guys have great voices, even better than the one overused voice on 'The Promise.'Go back and listen to the first CD...you'll hear the difference.",35946 1,fabric pins,received item in a very short amount of time. the master gardner 703 landscape fabtic pins was just what I was looking for to hold down my netting.,33662 0,"If this had been a library book, I would not have finished reading it.","Perhaps one of the worst books I ever read.

I admit there are some quite good things about this movie; the beginning and the twist ending, to name two. Sure, the kid is good, but quite overrated. If you are inexperienced with horror movies, you might find this scary. I just found the special effects to be gross. They could have told the little girl's story without having her throw up all over poor little Haley Joel Osment, for example. Furthermore, I didn't find their explanation believable about ghosts only seeing what they want to see. Overall, the acting is good throughout the movie, particularly Toni Collette, but the plot and explanations are lacking.",41752 1,"Creepy,Suspenseful, Heartwarming,all in one!","Once again this author has amazed me with her originality,and writing skill.This is my third book by her,after Edge of Recall and Freefall.

I have found the book to be a great read; once past the 3rd chapter, I literally could not put the book down.Renzo Allegri has used his journalism skills to collect materials and conduct key interviews to present a full account of Padre Pio. I initially expected this book to be fully devoted on Padre Pio's miracles (as Padre is well known for his miracle working), but I am glad to find that the book balances these with other 'non-miracle' aspects of his life; for instance, the close relationship he had with his mother, his time at the army during WW I, the persecutions he experienced under the Catholic 'jurisdiction' at the time etc.The only thing I wish this book would have are pictures of Padre Pio.

Ms. Moran blames all sorts of people for the problems the kids she studies face, but never looks at real accountability. Her suggestion to banish private schools is symptomatic of a larger left-liberal problem: the inability to think about what is real. I'm sure just how stupid this idea is has never occured to her. She probably thinks her book will lead to a law overthrowing a capitalist way of life in America.

I you pay more than $70 to $90, you've been ripped off.The set has a lot of feature (lots of nice glass lids, riveted handles, etc...) but don't be deceived. This is NOT a high quality set. This is a starter set for a young family that needs a lot of cookware. The material is just too thin to heat evenly. Also, it will warp and then not lay flat on my flat ceramic cooktop. If you have a gas cookstove, this might be OK for you, but believe me, a set this thin WILL NOT hold up well on a ceramic top. Also, the box said it was good in the oven to only 350 degrees.

Unfortunately, it fails because it does not offer a clear alternative. Behe tries to argue that things were 'designed' but then fails to say just what was designed and when (I can agree with Behe to skip 'who' for now). For example, he claims that the biochemical evidence on the mammalian clotting system was designed. When was it designed? In what animal? The paleontological evidence shows that mammals have been around for 150+ million years. Was the very first mammal imbued with a clotting system by the designer and then the rest of the mammals (humans included) evolved from that? Or is he proposing something else? Flagella have been around for most the beginning of life on earth; when did the designer do that? Before that, were there bacteria without flagella?

Barry Fitzgerald is his delightful self and causes her no end of trouble. In the end she is the proud mama of NINE war orphans and has found them a very charming daddy. We really enjoyed this film even though it wasn't Deanna's usual style.

It is mellow and light without being boring like Reckoning. It is also rich and lush, with a light jazz influence. The sound is closest to Wake of the Flood, but the songs are all stretched out. It does have the famous Grateful Dead jamming, but with the harsh psychodelic/acid edge removed. It is sort of like something Sade would record if she were to take LSD. You can really get into this album, but at the same time it is one of the few Dead albums that could be used as background music for a Sunday brunch.Eyes of the World is especially spectacular with the Brandon Marsalis sax solo.

It was a birthday present for someone who only likes the first two movies anyway, so that worked out great. I do think it's a little odd that it comes with the first movie, second movie, and then a blu-ray of the first movie. What a strange combination. Why not just the two films?

My second gripe is that I wish there was something that could assist in rolling the box, since when filled with litter it can be quite heavy and difficult for my girlfriend to roll (she's tiny, about 90 lbs). Other than those two issues, which can easily be resolved with a few modifications (wax paper, buff up) we love this box.

I found that this exam was very similar to the actual PPST I took, and my score on the practice exam was a good indicator of my score on the real exam. However, this book is not good if you need a thorough review of the material. It skims over things and does not go into too much detail. I needed a lot of math review and this book did not help too much with that. I also bought the Barron's book and thought that one was great for the review but mediocre on the practice tests (that one did have 3 though and this book only has one, but it is an actual old exam). So if you are taking the PPST definitely buy this book but also buy a good one for a review. For that I would recommend Barrons.

Andy Lau steals the screen once again, and if you haven't seen him in Infernal Affairs 1 & 3, get it now before Scorcese releases his remake. Leslie Cheung also had played the drama and action into his already complicated character with pure professionalism.The story is great, better than most of the crime films released in the US in the past 5 years, and the film is cut to leave you forced to rewatch the film to catch the subtleties that you missed the first time through.",43408 0,"Stick to kids and campaigns, Eric....","Not a very good mystery. There is little rapport with any of the characters, including Sam McCall. The background, which is one of political campaigns, might possibly be interesting if not so dry and specialized as it is in this book. The environmental issues are reduced to the not-so-burning-question of 'will the yellow-backed minnow survive as a species', and the obvious answer is, ""who cares?"". The motive for murder is revealed by artifice: a newspaper story quoted in the last chapter. And the prose is not deathless, but dead--and filled with needless typographical errors.

The two set out on a quest to find a trace of Lily's mother's past. When they reach their destination, the female bonding starts, and the book gets boring.

Although it contains several exciting and anxiety-filled subplots that D.G. readers have become accustomed to, the focus of the story is not entirely on Jamie and Claire. Instead, the author devotes half the book to following other characters such as Jamie and Claire's daughter, Brianna, and her family, in addition to events leading up to the American Revolution.I am a huge fan of Jamie and Claire's exploits, so I tend to get bored in spots that contain descriptive dialog instead of plot twists. I also got confused a few times while reading the book because the conversation did not flow naturally... I had to reread a few parts to figure out who was saying what to whom - as if Diana was in a hurry when she wrote the book.Nonetheless, A Breath of Snow and Ashes is worth reading for those of you who wish to follow the continuing saga of Jamie and Claire.",3750 1,Twisted Brilliance,"Paying homage to the likes of The Wicker Man and a whole heap of paranoia from the Seventies, Unhappy Birthday builds a creeping sense of dread that eventually builds to a palm sweating finale and a pay off that had the audience crying out not once but twice at the preview screening I attended. Solid performances, striking cinematography and a truly unsettling score more than make up for the lack of budget. And although the story meanders in one or two places at the start of the film, it offers a solid balance of dark humour, decent scares and moments of the truly bizarre.

It's wide, so you can't align both ends at the same time, you have to do one, then the other, but by the time you get back to the first side, it's out of alignment. That's not the worst of it. Once folded in (so the child can get on and off the bed comfortably), these two huge metal things stick out. If the child were to slide down the bed, or hop down, the metal hooks could definitely injur the back or front of the child.

It is brave of Mark to go against the doctrine of Buddhists to complain bitterly and mindlessly against desire. I find his writing enriching, for he is speaking as a meditator, a lover, a father, an analyst, and a wonderer - someone who is willing to just LOOK at what is going on. And opening to desire makes meditation juicier and more electrifying.Since the late 60's, most of my friends have been Buddhists or Yogis, and in the early 70's I noticed how deadened many of them were becoming, as they worked inwardly to kill their desires.

The director, Joseph Lewis, displays almost none of the talent he showed in his later films. Only the presence of Bela Lugosi makes this one worthwhile.

True, this film has an excellent opening sequence, and the scene in which the younger of the Brody brothers gets chomped is equally effective. But after that things go downhill and you're left with something that feels like a Saturday afternoon made-for-TV flick or a film which has had the frightening bits removed by the censors. The plot is just ridiculous. How could a shark travel halfway across the world in a matter of hours? Why did Mrs Brody have flashbacks to events she never even witnessed? Why does the shark explode? The worst element of the film, however, are the 'character is killed but then miraculously turns out to be alive even though his death was obviously irreversable' scenes which really belong only in groan-worthy cartoons. The proposed Jaws 5 has never been made. Perhaps this is a blessing undisguised.",4971 1,A gift for my mom!,"She really liked, and loved the smell, defenelly is for adoult women after 30 years.

I like Alpha Blondy's voice too. Reminds me a little of Burning Spear's, though he'll slip into a little French or some other language now and again. No problem - the groove the tune the voice is all there and if you hear faint traces of the Wailers, that's because they backed him on this album, his fourth (apparently they had worked with him on the title track of his second album as well). This album makes me want to hear more from Alpha Blondy. It's a winner all the way through.",32220 0,Rather disappointing,"I am sure B. Frantzis is a very knowledgeable man, but this book is a little too diluted! The same thing could have been written in less than half the book. So many pages on what you should not do could have been replaced by clear explanations focusing on what you should do. Although I enjoyed reading about the experiences of the author in Asia, I had the impression that he is trying to fill as many pages as possible while teaching a minimum.

With more emphasis on the plot and character development this book could have been pretty decent. I get the impression that P.

A word of caution: the book contains chapters that line up with the real book, but not verses. It tells the complete story in the chapter, which is great. But if you wanted to know which verse they got a certain concept from, you will have to go back through the BOM itself and guess which verse it was referring to. If a chapter has 60 verses, that is a challenge. If you don't have any reason to match us verses to the chapters, then this is perfect. It is good for getting the just of the story understood.

The joy is in the journey. The peculiar characteristics of the objects have a surreal quality, an exercise of pure imagination, that is very engaging (Andre Breton would probably have loved this story). The really compelling aspect of Lost Room, I think, is the variety of reactions to these objects. People band together to collect them, worship them, or suppress them; individuals seek them as personal talismans, weapons, valuables, or just to enhance their own self-worth. It gives the story depth, and lifts it into the realm of intelligent SF. Fans of PK Dick, Star Trek, Firefly, and the golden age of SF would probably all enjoy this show.

I choose this book because it was and autobiography about a young African American girl and I thought in some way I could relate. First of all, the book starts off completely slow and it stays that way throughout the whole book. It doesn't have any parts that are interesting or keep your attention. One other thing I didn't like was the fact that the words she used were dull and hard to understand. There were too many characters and she jumped back and forth between them throughout the entire story, so you never know whom she's talking about or what their purpose is in the story.

Second, I have yet to do the core or weight-lifting programs in 15 minutes--both claims the author makes. Lack of exercise alternatives for weight machines is also a complaint.On the positive side, I have gotten more limber and certainly stronger due to following this program.

I scoop daily and take the goodies outside to the trash right away. It's very solid and the lid is very strong. My 2-year-old, 10.5-lb cat fits just great and took to it immediately.

Fick has always had a first class analytic mind (he is too modest to mention the Rintels prize for best honors thesis at Dartmouth for his study of Thucydidean realism), and has been able to apply it with a degree of detachment to a traumatic and intensely personal experience.This is a unique work. Evan Wright's book and series in Rolling Stone (which I also enjoyed and recommend) is superb at exploring character; Smith and West do a good job of laying out the wider picture. But Fick manages to convey both the experience of combat and the larger issues at stake for the individuals and the countries involved. His Anabasis blends, if you will, the immediacy of Xenophon's with the historical sense of Arrian's, and goes beyond either in the acuity of its perceptions.In sum, Fick's book is conscious at every level.

Remember, Dune had sequels (some very good) but the main story holds up even if you only read the first book.Sequels have gotten out of hand, so many books are now barely an outline when a sequel is already in the works.

It's definately a waste of $ and there are other books out there that are a fraction of the cost and will help you build vocabulary.For those who have no understanding of the language and are just learning... this will be great because it explains why they use certain words and it goes reeeaaally slow and gives you a chance to practice speaking.As a general observative for all levels, it's basically a vocabulary builder and basis for everyday conversation and will not help with grammar/writing.",31897 1,My son loved his watch!!!,I got this for my son for his birthday.

The next 2 weeks consist of one complete practice test, broken up into one section one day, with an explanation following the next day, and so on. The next week is another practice test, broken up the same way.

To my delight and surprise this fan is very quiet, does not wobble, and man, what a nice looking fan.

Interesting enough, they are arguing over Elizabeth, the girl neither has been with. But not over Dana, the girl they have both slept with. I guess Laurie John wants us to believe that no guy can get over Elizabeth, and truly fall in love with another girl.

The book was a terrible disspointment. The story line, if you can call it that was never really established. It was nothing morning than snipits of various charters lines which really went nowhere. New potentially interesting characters were introduced but they were never really connected to the story line in any meaningful way. The chapters were two pages long and resembled notes for ideas which were never put together or developed. Ms. Cronwell's writings have evolved into dark tales of the seriously mentally ill rather than on Ms. Scarpetta's talents as a forensic pathologist.

The official Camel web site talks about how fun this album was to make, and that energy does come through. I just wish some more good music would have come out of it.

What a deal!Do yourself a favor before buying: consider my experience with SONY repair. I mailed in my bum buds - the second pair that failed - but I objected to SONY's pricing.

I've never listened to Indian music before, and don't know what I would think of this outside of the context of the movie. It reminds me of new age music, but with more ethnic color. At least one song also sounds a little Latin American. So it's a great mix of types, I'm already familiar with and like, but different because it's Indian. Some songs are very danceable tunes that sound quite techno! Someone who likes upbeat foreign music and pop would enjoy this. I love it for the unique sound and, upbeatness.

You're basically stuck trying to figure out a problem. It doesn't even explain how to work on proofs!

I guess Jackson is the metaphorical embodiment of the US Govt? Poor thing, with its hands so tied. Poor, misunderstood US Govt, just trying to save people.

When they were good, they were brilliant, as demonstrated in the exuberant Joy To The World, the moody, atmospheric Mama Told Me Not To Come (a description of a weird party), and the reggae rhythms of Black & White (first done by Greyhound), Show Must Go On (a Leo Sayer song) and Family Of Man. But their slower soft rock ballads like Old Fashioned Love Song, Never Been To Spain etc. never appealed to me although they were big hits. This band is hard to classify, they strode the rock/pop divide with great aplomb, perhaps like Paul Revere & The Raiders.",35435 0,Buyer Beware ... This DVD was Made for the European Market,"I was looking forward to watching a movie about the Comedian Harmonists and purchased a DVD from M&L.; The DVD was promptly mailed and promptly received. Sadly, I found that I could not play this DVD on any of my systems because it was in PAL format. The Phase Alternating Line system is an analogue television color encoding system used in broadcast television systems in Europe, the Middle East, and large parts of Africa, and Asia. It is not used stateside. Here in the states, we use an NTSC format.What does any of this mean? The DVD I purchased was clearly meant for the European market. Unless you have a DVD and TV player with multisystem capabilities, you won't be able to play this particular film.I was disappointed that at the time I made this purchase, the ad for this film did not mention that it was in PAL format.

To me it's like if they had taken the illustrations from Twas the Night Before Christmas and discarded the story.

Second, the phone is so oddly shaped....lip-shaped...that it is IMPOSSIBLE to prop the phone on your shoulder and talk. It slides off your shoulder. It is EXTREMELY uncomfortable to hold because of the shape of the receiver. It is like holding a lip-shaped rock to your head. If you move the receiver the slightest while talking, the sound is GREATLY EXAGGERATED and is heard in the receiver. The phone turns over VERY easily.

I had to wait a month for the first replacement, but then usually only about the week for each of the others. They told me it was ""not designed for a dedicated athlete like myself"". What a crock.

The cards are a nice glossy stock material but I agree that if you plan to leave your baby with them unattended, a quick laminating job would be your best bet to keep them in tip top shape. Another perk is the information listed on the back of each card. Sometimes I get tired of hearing myself talk and run out of topics to discuss in my one-sided conversations.

What I got is a poorly written, hastily concocted manuscript filled with useless pseudo-information. As someone with relatively broad knowledge of Japanese, Nordic, Russsian and Eastern European names I was surprised to see the selection of names by the author. Many 'Russian names' are derivative forms never used as official names, the Japanese names are in many cases either outright bizarre or sex-switched, i.e. boys' names claimed to be girls' names. The meanings seem to often come from some poorly researched and even more poorly translated sources. I can only assume that the quality of lists of other 'ethnic' names and their meanings is just the same junk. I fell into a trap of buying this book lured by ignorant reviews.

You don't learn about all the famous pirates or everything that the pirates are about because there just isn't enough time but you do learn a lot. I learned some new things about pirates and about some famous ones too.

It seems like this story has been told dozens of times in the past, only this time the privileged girl is a vampire and the slave boy is a werewolf lycan. There is big budget action sprinkled in throughout the movie. The art style really sets it apart from any other movie, because its dark, blue and set in the medieval ages. The movie is devoid of life and good acting, but I guess when they're vampires they have to be devoid of life.

Unfortunately, fruit dust always resides at the bottom and easily creates a mess if one is not careful.All in all, I recommend this product and hope that the organic version of this will be chosen over the non-organic.

This philosophy was bornduring his Ditch Trilogy period. Essentially, he attached his early success andfame to one-sided explorations. For example, one can easily hear Heart of Goldand imagine that John Denver might have written such a lightweight song.It might be interesting to perform an experiment in which a subject is exposedto a medium and then asked to select from a group of expensive objects or cheapobjects. Perhaps Shakey's reaction to his success was to challenge this conceptby daring an audience to follow him in to The Ditch, as he called it.

The main problem is that the Count of Monte Cristo is too rich a story to fit in a mere 400 minutes. The book deserves a longer treatment, say on the order of magnitude of I, Claudius. The DVD makes the Count a much softer character, compresses the time between his escape and his revenge, downgrades the importance of the wonderful character Haydee ( while promoting the Ali Pasha to a Sultan) and rewites the ending.

Sure enough the G-II is simple to use, little to break, and the right tool for the job. I gave it four stars out of five because it is a little bit bigger than I expected it to be. Also, the nine volt battery compartment makes it difficult to install a remove and install a battery, yet too easy to install with the poles connecting the wrong terminals.

Even one set of parents is scarier than Hell itself.Many sections of the book will have you holding your breath as you turn the page, convinced that a murder will bloody the scene.

It would load a tape, but not play it, fast forward, rewind, or anything. Toshiba's support phone number was entirely useless as it was just a recording saying to use the web. Not wanting the hassle of trying to return the item and being at least a little technically inclined, I got the courage to open the case and look inside hoping not to leave any evidence that would void the warranty. Once open it was clear that the unit was not fully engaging the tape to the tape head. A quick inspection showed that a bracket had been bounced out of place during shipment which was jamming the tape loading mechanism and so I was able to return it back to where it was supposed to be. That did the trick and the unit now works fine.

I immediatly folded the booster up, put it in the box and returned it to toys r'us. I got the fisher price model instead--for $5.00 more, it is sooo much better.

Together with his mistaken history, he also devolopes a misleading and destructive form of social class theory. Despite this, the last chapter and essay in the appendix serve to redeem the book somewhat. I would recommend the work as a source of strong libertarian principles and a solid indictment of the state( remember the difference between the state and government).

I am in total agreement with most other reviews that state this is not a game developed and meant to be played on the PC. It was a huge disappointment in every way. The graphics stink, the cut scenes stink, and it is almost impossible to control your character's direction or aim. Everything is customized and confusing, you are not able to use your mouse. The angles in which you have to view your characters and the surrounding landscapes is awkward and out of focus.

I'd say buy the book used (lots of low priced options currently), and use the savings to hire a good tutor to help explain what the book doesn't. I did this, and it did help a lot.

I was most impressed by his seamless handling of time-shifts in this complex narrative. He also did an excellent job at creating suspense. I suspect, though, that he meant for the book to be more a 'novel of ideas' than a novel of suspense.

We never learn how the task force gets it's intelligence to be where the terrorists turn up, how they get into position, what planning is done or if there is any plan. Each time, they just suddenly appear at the right time and surprise the terrorists.The action in each of the battles is slow. You can almost count the minutes that the task force is standing around idle whilst the terrorists are firing away.. and of course, most of them get away each time.The dialogue between characters is incredibly weak and could easily have been written by a 14 year old. That is not to insult any 14 year olds, just a comparison to the language that you would expect from a young teenager of today.Overall, extremely poor written book and boring cartoonish action.",11164 1,A gratifying debut.,"Cyndi Thomson's first album ""My World"" has beautiful, heartfelt lyrics, but I do disagree with a few of the people on here who say that the songs sound too much alike. The only songs that have a slight similarity are ""If You Were Mine"" and ""Things I Would Do"" because they have the same concept, which is things she would do if she had her lover back and things she'd do to get him back.Besides that, this album shines brilliantly on songs like ""I Always Liked That Best,"" ""What I Really Meant To Say,"" ""If You Were Mine,"" ""There Goes The Boy"" and ""I'm Gone,"" which is a very fun, upbeat tune.Another good thing about this album is that Cyndi co-wrote eight of the eleven songs on here. She has such a unique and twangy voice, which is perfect for country music today. I definitely think you should give ""My World"" a listen. You're in for a pleasant surprise if you do.",1813 1,A classic!,"Very interesting book for anyone interested in how Japan built up its strong post-WWII work and life ethics.

That said, I found two problems, on minor, one major, with the design:Minor: the pockets don't expand in true ""accordion"" fashion due to how they're sewn to the back. The result is the front pocket is smaller than the back.Major: No photographer in their right mind would entrust their filters (as shown in the product image above) to a case where anything would touch, contaminate, and possible permanently damage them. That's why all quality filters come with some type of hard container for storage. The size of the container drastically reduces the size of the filter the MX-S5363 can hold.

To truly becomming a peaceful warrior, one must continually explore, retain, and focus in on the present, sub-consciously feeding one's life meter with new experiences and observations upon which to accumulate and feed off in future years.

The problem with recording standards is that it is a rare event that the definitive version of any one of these songs has not already been done. To make a new interpretation of these songs relevant requires a knack for phrasing and an emotional connection to the lyrics that very few contemporary artists can muster (Michael Buble can...Michael Bolton cannot.)

Couple of useless things on the bag, the zipper to close the inside body is very hard to close and not necessary.

The story kept me on my feet and I couldn't put it down. I never lost interest in the characters or the plot. Every new chapter had some new twists and turns that just made the book unbelievable. I believe that any student that partcipates in atheletics during their high school or college years should read this book.

In ""Island of the Colorblind"" he reveals the potential strangeness and uniqueness of life on islands. He describes how islands, by their very nature, isolate life-forms which develop unique strains of animals or plants. Islands are protected from the forces occuring on large land masses and species adapt in their own way. The Pacific atoll of Pineglap, unknown to me before, is inhabited by islanders born totally colorblind. Guam is inhabited by an inordinate number of people with the neurodegenerative disease, ALS. Merely being aware of these mysteries reinforces the feeling of humility in the midst of natural forces we feel so inadequate to fully understand. If you want to be reminded of the curiosity and sense of wonder you had as a child, savor Oliver Sack's work.",48972 0,I really wanted to like this album,"When I listened to this album, I really wanted to like it. I really did. While it's not quite as weak as Erotica, it comes pretty close. This album focuses heavily on the theme of the excesses of modern life; however, the album has too strong of an emphasis on this theme, making Madonna almost as guilty of excess as those she criticizes.American Life suffers from a lack of diveristy in the music. Also, many of the songs seem to get stuck in a groove and never really progress anywhere musically. The song ""Nobody Knows Me"" felt a lot like a re-hash of ""Impressive Instant"" (from Madonna's previous album, Music).It just felt like Madonna and Mirwais didn't put forth as much effort as they could have when producing this album. When I listened to the disc, I kept having this ""been there, done that"" feeling.

In many respects, it is to be expected (he's had a hard life and he is a teenager) but part of what makes Harry so endearing is that he is still such a great, sweet and likeable kid in spite of everything he has gone through. I know that all is not well in the wizarding world, but part of me wants to feel good at some point during the book. That being said, I think that Rowling once again demonstrates the ability to keep readers enthralled and craving more (at least I am).

There were multiple scenes where the characters engaged in heavy Christ-oriented prayer sessions, that had nothing to do with the plot. If it advances the storyline, great.

He wouldn't know if he was a good guy or an evil guy. ""The consequences will be real"" ""No one would go near him."" Who knows what he coulddo. Also could be adventurous because Brent visits different places on his journey. Forexample, "" Let people all over the country receive joy from her."" He meets so manypeople along the journey.

She arrives at the conclusion that pregnancy is really, contrary to common wisdom, ten months long by stating that each month is four weeks long, and pregnancy lasts 40 weeks, so one is pregnant for ten months. Does the author really think that all 12 months are 4 weeks long? Oh, I forgot, beauty is much more important than substance to this author, as is evidenced by her obsession with making her husband still find her attractive even though she's disgustingly fat at nine months pregnant.I would not recommend this book to anyone.

With his tenor to baritone voice, he sings every song with feeling. The great songs include the gunfighter ballads; ""Big Iron"", ""Billy The Kid"", ""Running Gun"", and the No. 1 epic, ""El Paso"". Also, the other great songs like the rodeo staple; ""Strawberry Roan"", and the great western gospel track; ""Master's Call"". If you asked me what my favorite song was on here, I couldn't really pick one, since every song is just as good as the next.

Then, as now, Madonna was ahead of the curve in doing this. Her chameleon like makeovers make her a more riveting subject. And as an icon for her time, she makes for great tv. The slice of life approach integrates well and viewing it 16 years later - it's as fresh as it ever was. Better than the Osbournes.One thing is I always wondered what happened to the director of the film: Alek Keshishian.

The album has plenty of decent tunes to recommend it, particularly the soulful title track (in which he cites Carole King in the second line), ""Sunshine,"" ""Slaveship,"" the ace lovesong ""Under Your Charms,"" and the amazingly spiritual ""Sparrows Over Birmingham.""Through four albums, Josh Rouse has been a uniformly excellent songwriter.

Twice, we have programed an address and when we arrived at our destination, the business had moved. I am not sure how often business places are updated, but that was somewhat of an annoyance. The Garmin did take us there, the information just had not been updated from the business...we went to the old address instead of the newer one that opened about 8 mos. ago.Otherwise, this is a great product and was a fantastic price from Amazon.com.

By the same token, if you're a Stosselesque libertarian, you might be surprised to learn that this isn't necessarily a passive affirmation of what you already know to be true.True, there are the obligatory smackdowns of global warming and secondhand smoke. But the reader may be surprised at the sections on child discipline and hypnosis.

Archaeopteryx lithographica is taken as a guide for a survey of current (well, 1998) thought about the origin of birds and the origin of bird flight. The fact that she doesn't really choose sides does not hinder her to conclude that those in favour of the 'ground-up' and dinosaurian origin of birds now have the upper hand - but then, any other conclusion would have been a distortion of fact.

This novel seems an attempt to to entertain with highly unlikely adventures of the ""rich and famous"" to make the point about the horror of FGM. I wonder how much the author truly knows about Maasai culture. Her bio says she was born in Africa, a very large continent most of which is not Maasai, and now lives in the US.

You can still have different combo's with all the rest of the buttons and joysticks on the controller but keep the same basics.

""How Does It Feel?"" feels great to me. But then again, I have been a huge Nancy fan for many years now. So this album was certainly a treat for me, as I believe it was for any true Nancy fan. To hear songs never before released is quite exciting, especially coming from an artist you adore. Nancy Sinatra is a much underappreciated artist, and just think about it: She had to live in the shadow of her famous father and when people think ""Sinatra,"" they think wonderful, and Nancy is a disappointment to some. Sure her vocal talents aren't up to Streisand's or her dad's, but look at her! Still has a huge following and continues to do what she loves to do! (which is great for us fans).

One wonders whether these writers are tailoring their prose to please strict workshop teacher, or whether workshops simply encourage denatured, Raymond Carver-esque prose.

Techniques that likely work extremely well in a controlled instructional environment against willing training partners but will unlikely work against the average mugger or rapist who happens to be big, mean, and high on drugs.I would suggest that people interested in saving their lives or the lives of their loved ones, purchase the following titles- ""Strong On Defense"" by Sandford Strong, ""The Gift of Fear"" by Gavine De Becker, ""Defensive Living"" by Bo Hardy, and ""Protecting The Gift"" by Gavine De Becker.",15485 1,Vocal harmony at it's finest,"The new Four Freshmen are carrying on the tradition of four voices singing five-part harmony.

This means sending the unit back to the manufacturer for service. If you don't, it tends to sneak up with progressively higher readings. Unfortunately, I found this out after I bought it. So here's the thing you will need to consider: you are paying $130 for 1 year of ballpark accuracy readings.

In fact batteries were dead when lighter arrived. Could not find size of battery that lighter required. Light kept falling off anyway. Lighter itself would seldom light. All in all a great disappointment from a brand that I had some respect for. Lighter was returned. :(,36469 0,not a typical Chinese movie,"So in my opnion, this movie really suck.

Aside from the riffs about working for the Mafia and Visiting Africa, I didn't even know what he was talking about. Particularly distressing was the audience calling out for a certain well-loved bit. Pryor acquiesced. ""Okay. This is the last time."" It wasn't funny. (The audience was in stitches.) It wasn't funny to me. So, I don't get it. Boomer drug culture?

""Barney Shapes & Colors All Around"" is a great DVD for all young kids because it goes though the colors of the rainbow and different shapes kids see throughout the day. It really does make learning fun and is very visual which is great for kids. There is lots of singing of course and even dancing! I love that the DVD not only includes Barney but also Baby Bop and BJ because I think it makes the show more exciting. It is almost an hour long DVD which is nice because it is not too short nor too long. I like to play this for my 2 year old when my older son is at school, hoping that he will get a good start on his colors and shapes! Its funny how when Barney talks about colors and shapes, my son listens and enjoys it as when I try to work on them with him!",44848 1,Spotted Lizards,I loved this book.

Don't read it for the fine literature (although the long paragraph in the climax of the novel was worth the whole book--very good writing).I never really associated with Billy Chapel; he didn't capture my heart.

It has a belt clip that holds tight when I'm at the gym. It also has a solid arm band with velcro closure.There is a slit on the side that allows you to access the On-Off switch on the side of the K3. The hole for the ear phone plus fits well. You can open the velcro cover to access the USB plug to re-charge when not in use.The see through cover allows you to easily control the touch pad controls of the K3 and at the same time, prevent from getting your K3 scratched up.A good product.",35153 1,Great title track,"This is a great album with an inspiring title track.

That being said, It's been a year and I'm buying a new one just before the rainy season hits.UPDATE: I received my newest cover and man, it appears the Gents over at Bradley Smokers have been listening and decided to bump up the quality of this cover significantly. The new one I recieved is a heavy nylon? fabric that seems to be significantly more durable than the previous one. I'm guessing that while this one might fade over the next year, I highly doubt it will tear or corrode. It's a rather industrial cover now and I look forward to seeing just how long this one lasts.

Two unlikely friends form an alliance and attempt a comeback. Shirley MacLaine is great in a supporting role.,33703 1,A very valuable resource,"This book offers an excellent means to learn a number of commonly used Spanish words by applying some simple rules. Reading this book will help the learner form a good vocabluary base. However, in my experience, although it will greatly enhance the learning process, it is not a substitute for the rigors necessary to learn a foreign language. The serious reader will probably agree that it is still necessary to study grammar and additionally study vocabluary if the language is to be grasped. I would say, by all means, buy the book. It will increase your vocabluary greatly and should be highly recommended for that purpose. However, combine this with a good core program to attain a true grasp of the language.",17260 1,First-Rate SF,"It's kind of odd that the first five books were called ""Mageworlds"" when actually the Mages were more or less the enemy, and the stories took place on the other side of the galaxy. But this time, we really see this universe from the point of view of the ""bad guys""--who aren't necessarily bad.Doyle and Macdonald are never predictable, or easy; if you like tricky plotting and subtle characterizations and zippy pacing, this is the book for you. Add in the realistic detail on how military people think and work, and you've got great action as well. But that's not to say the story is one-dimensional shoot'em'up; there are insightful glimpses into human interaction, and traces of mysticism.Well worth the hardback price, because this is a keeper for years of rereading. I hope there's going to be more about the real Mageworlds!",33598 0,Bad pop music!!,"What do you get when you mix horrible beats with a graspy voiced singer? you get the ""last temptation"" i give this album one star just for the neptunes beat on pop niggy's thats it.

I was shocked to find this movie completely lacking in passion, nearly devoid of motivation, without adequate storyline, and completely miscast: a totally detached, arch Garbo with acting more appropriate to the Marschallin in der Rosenkavalier than passionate Anna, a completely sexless March botching Count Vronsky, who should be the most dashing man in Russia with March looking more like Hitler on a good day. Zilch charisma between Garbo and March whatsoever. Ever since viewing this, I've been walking around parodying Garbo by pretending to speak her faux Russian accent through that clenched-teeth smile.

Harry Potter #2 is packed with adventure, magic, humor, and mystery, just like the first book, plus it also brings in some new characters and another mysterious plot that won't let you stop reading. Rowling does an excellent job of character developement and describing scenery with her broad vocabulary. You may find, that in many parts of the book, you don't realize you are even reading a book. You feel as if you are really at Hogwarts School. If you haven't read the first book, there are enough references that will still allow you to understand the storyline.

The one I received only has mesh on the inside. I guess it is a design change. Not sure how it'll affect performance, if at all. Nice to get a filter for under $12 compared to dealer replace charge and labor. Look on youtube to see how easy it is to change the filter yourself and save some major bucks. Finally, I went 30k miles until I changed the filter per the owners manual. All I can say is I should've ignored the manual and changed it sooner...say 15 - 20k. The filter was a chunk of dirt.

Having created a montage of nostalgic photographs from ""the old days,"" e.g., pre-Vaticann II, the author felt obligated to annotate his montage with would-be paens to ""the good sisters"" from a grab-bag of assorted clerics and laity. The majority, if not all, of the photographs contained therein were archival and as such, lose some of their historic significance, as their documentation is nil. Whoever designed this book, and I fear it might be Mr. Paulos himself, violated just about every fundamental principle of book design - it's so naive, it's almost charming! If you can skip the saccharine prose and just focus on the photographs, ""Behold the Women"" supplies about 15 minutes of visual gratification.",27586 0,Vintage Anita fan,"When I first discovered Anita Blake 2 years ago I was at the book store like a pregnant woman looking for pickles. Well, those days are over. I am sadly disappointed with this latest incarnation of Anita Blake. I have no problem with a tantalizing sex scene. But, these scenes have gone from tantalizing to repetitive to downright boring.Where are the bad guys? Where are the cops? Where is Anita's job? Where are the zombies? Where is the story? Where is the mystery? The vampire ballet, which seemed to be the point of the whole story, didn't appear until well into the third and final act. There was ample opportunity for the visiting vamps to have brought mayhem with them as was seen in Burnt Offerings. But, no dice.This is the last Anita Blake story I'll ever buy. I'm sorry to say that unless Laurell K. Hamilton can take the time to develop a real story, I'll also have to abstain from her Meredith Gentry series as well. It's also gone the way of the thin and plotless.",32182 1,Look Out here comes the Santa Buddies!,"If you or your children are a fan of any of the ""Buddies"" movies then Santa Buddies makes a great holiday addition to your collection. However if you haven't seen any of the previous films I would recommend renting one before purchasing this DVD / Blu-Ray Combo.Without giving away the plot Santa Buddies is about a group of lovable talking puppies who are out to help Santa Claus and save Christmas.This is a 4 out of 5 in my opinion, if you are using the Blu-Ray it features full 1080 hd with 5.1 DTS HD and 5.1 Dolby Digital in French and Spanish. It comes with wonderful extras including: Sing Along Christmas Carols with The Buddies and a Special Santa Claus is Coming to Town Music Video.In the end The Buddies are adorable, however this is an average holiday movie.

There he encounters a complicated web of secrets, betrayals and ghosts. This is a very fine film by director Guillermo del Toro, who has since made some big Hollywood productions. The drama in ""Devil's Backbone"" is compelling and often pushes the more ghostly elements into the background. The setting is inspired.
