0 | Not even worth a one star... | I have no idea how this is getting so many good reviews. I know I am not stupid, but I can't keep the butter from dumping out into the water every time I lift up the lid. We live in a dry climate and have air conditioning in our house, so I don't think it is the heat. I would love to hear how others got it to work. | 30,753 |

1 | Really Good Peice | I have been using with my Laptop . It works very fine and is compatable to most of the PCs. Only problem is it doesnot have a remote. If there was one it would have been good | 12,056 |
0 | TOO LONG, TOO TEDIOUS | The book starts out promisingly enough with a female novelist unearthing a spaceship buried on her land. But then Mr King dissolves into hectares of verbiage that don't advance the story one iota. You could take out whole chapters and no one would notice, because the plot doesn't advance an inch in that time. Add to that Mr King's customary infatuation with scatology and what you have is an utterly tedious piece of work. | 48,977 |
1 | Plush Elmo | My son just loves Elmo, and this one is perfect for carrying around and taking to bed with him. Elmo's soft and cuddly, and just the right size for my 15-month old. And while he loves the Tickle Me Elmo, Elmo TMX is just too hard for cuddling! | 19,961 |
0 | Same old Thing: I do not recommend this Rinaldi Book | Changed the character, changed the scene, changed the time period, and abracadabra! Another Rinadi historical fiction. This is a very tedious and winding novel that just shows that Rinaldi is running out of time periods out of history. I thoroughly enjoyed her WOLF BY THE EARS, and COLONIAL AMERICA stories, but this book was just to rediculous. Maybe Ann Rinaldi should consider trying to act out the lives of people in Europe (Elizabeth I, Lady Jane Grey, Ann Boleyn) and drop the whole American theme.I'd give this book 1 star because of it's weak content and obvious historical remarks, but threw in an extra star because Ann Rinaldi is one of the best historical writers I have ever come across. If you're a new Rinaldi reader, try her other more great works, but if you have read all her other novels, just might as well read this one. | 35,221 |
1 | Haunting, you'll never ride a subway the same way again... | The author brings the underground world of subway dwelling and tunnel building alive like Tolkien's middle-earth. (Toto we're definteley not in Modor) I loved the times review tag "a family comes to new york to build the subways and ends up living in them". The tale has heart without sacraficing it's teeth as it bites into social commentary. Depressing and hopeful, a speedball you wont want to miss. | 6,482 |
0 | Nope, definitely not for beginners.. | Previous reviewers are correct in stating that this is definitely not for beginners. Recently I started doing "Amira's Bellydance 101" (absolutely love it) and felt like I had learned a little something. Hehe.. evidently I had not learned as much as I had thought. I could not really keep up with "Step by Step BellyDance". After 30 minutes I turned it off. I'm giving it 2 stars because the instructor is very enthusiastic and fun to watch. More experienced dancers might be able to keep up with her. I'm just glad that no one could see inside my living room when I was trying to imitate her movements :) | 8,898 |
0 | Outdated string, use D'Daddario Preludes instead. | This string has had it's day, and it's long past. Coming from someone who repairs and sells violins for a living, players should look elsewhere for affordable student strings. With many advances in string technology within the past 10 years, it doesn't necessarily pay to stick with old standbys anymore. Super Sensitive Red Label strings are somewhat durable but harsh. Go with D'Daddrio Prelude strings instead. Same price as the Red Label strings but with a tone that's easier on the ears. The lower strings can be a bit on the dark side, but that's far better than a harsh-sounding string. Go with the Prelude strings, a real no-brainer.D'Addario Prelude Violin String Set, 4/4 | 22,106 |
0 | Not Comedy...Just Tourette's | I have no problem with bad language in comedy IF it makes me laugh. But this is probably the most laughless hour of "comedy" I've ever seen. Saget clearly has talent and a sense of humor (despite everything I still LIKE the guy)...but just as clearly he had no scripted act prepared, and seemed to feel that he could simply fill an hour by shouting out whatever random obscenities came into his head. Often, they didn't even seem to make sense to Saget himself. It would be interesting to see what he could do with an actual routine...but this particular "act" was pretty much an insult to the audience. You'd be nuts to pay for it. | 45,164 |
1 | Easy to follow | I've had this for a while and recently pulled it out of the closet and tried it again. I forgot how good of a video it is. Tracy is very plesant to listen to and she describes the moves very thouroughly. It's not a high impact video but it does get my heart pumping during the standing portion. It's only 30 minutes total so it's probably not enough if you're looking for cardio, but it's a wonderful way to change up your routine. You'll really feel like you did some good burning in your legs! | 49,793 |
0 | Ours broke in 6 days | My wife and mother-in-law purchased our TV on the net. It stopped working after only 6 days. Sony sent a local repair shop to try to fix the set and he was unable to find out what was the problem. We asked the repairman how we should deal with the situation and the first thing he said was he wouldn't have bought a Sony in the first place, the repairman would have bought a Mitsubishi. We have contacted Sony and the internet retailer several time and we have not been able to have the problem resolved. Luckily our charge card company reversed the payment. The TV had good picture and sound until it broke but the customer service from Sony is the worst. Be careful buying large high ticket items off the Net that will be hard or impossible to return. The cross country freight for this TV is $250.00 | 23,477 |
0 | a waste of time and a waste of money | the story line is poor- the acting is a shame...and i dont think no one should spend their money on this movie...i tried to enjoyed it when i first got it but after 20 minutes into the movie i was ready to click STOP!!! the acting reminds me of a a bad High School play.... | 7,990 |
1 | Amazing self help, without even knowing it! | The book is an easy read and enjoyable. It keeps you turning the pages to see who the character will meet next. I recommend this book because it simply states the value of holding onto to your faith, or letting someone else sit in the driver seat for you while you learn. The Seven Decisions can be used in many practices of your life... I loved it. | 41,366 |
1 | Engaging | We had just gotten home from a trip to NOLA when I read this book. I liked being able to picture the city and lifestyle while reading the clever mystery. | 34,616 |
1 | Espresso Maker: Review | September 21, 2010Recently purchased the DeLonghi Bar32 Retro Pump-Driven Espresso Maker: It is well worth the price, combined with the level of quality of both the espresso and cappuccino coffee makes for a most enjoyable experience.The stylish retro design compliments the Kitchen.I have nearly always wanted a "good" espresso coffee maker for our Home:--I've just found one.And by the way, it makes great Single cup coffee as well.As a new buyer to Amazon, thanks to the very helpful staff who assisted and facilitated my purchase. | 13,987 |
1 | An A + hit | The music is great and fun to listen to a definet Best seller in my opinion. should fly off the shelves in no time! | 24,362 |
0 | Don't bother... Lousy Quality. | They broke the first time that I used them. The locking mechanism is cheap and slides out of its intended slot. Don't waste your money on this item. | 21,138 |
0 | Les Miserables | I couldn't read it. Knocked off trying after chapter 6. Too verbose for me. In saying that, I recognised the author's ability and claim to fame!Stuart Pemberton | 29,158 |
0 | Stupid, and boring | If you are a parent starting to buy this dvd for your child, then think twice. There was no plot to this movie and was just down right stupid. All of the olsen twins movies were pointless and dumb. They are terrible actressess. | 12,366 |
0 | The "Cover" of Iron Butterfly | I noticed a couple of people asked about the "cover" of In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida. Well, I watched the movie credits and there was no mention of the song. Obviously, they ripped it off and renamed it. Pretty digusting. Very blatant. It wasn't even a matter of a riff that sounded similar... They copied the sound and mood too, complete with Don Ingle-style organ. Sad. | 3,733 |
1 | A Precious Gem Of A Film | I can't stop raving about this movie!!!! There are so many things that touch my heart and make me cry. The fact that young Sara remains so optimistic and kind throughout her ordeal is enough to recommend the film (and the book). Liam Cunnigham is so handsome and gentle as her father, who adores his only and motherless child the way all children want to be loved. And the "curse" put on the snobby Lavinia is priceless!!! They could not have chosen a better child actress to play Sara. Liesel Matthews embodies her character so well that you forget that she's acting. The fantasy sequences are glorious to look at, and the little girls at the school are adorable in their uniforms. Eleanor Bron is superb as Ms. Minchen. You just love to hate her. This movie should be watched with "The Secret Garden" (1993). Both are timeless, touching, and beautiful masterpieces. Share it with your children and your inner child. Remember 'Every girl everywhere is a princess.' Need I say more? | 47,309 |
0 | Too much celebrity, too little content | [...] Like the diet plan, this book is full of filler and no substance. Date with this book and you'll end up dropping some money that would have been better spent on an online service or a haircut. [...] | 22,346 |
1 | This CD helped me through my storm | I am also very pleased with this album. I purchased it for the song "Praise You in this Storm" too because I had a very rough summer and needed to be reminded daily that my storm would eventually end (and it did!) but God would never leave me. I read Justin from Alabama's comment and realized the Lord does give and take away as mentioned at funerals. To me, taking away means He takes back souls from earth to be with Him. I have listened to this CD many times and most of the songs really helped me change my perspective and draw closer to God. | 9,584 |
0 | Awful | This product was so stale it had to be thrown out. Chocolate was grainy and tasteless, peppermint had no flavor. Horrible!!! The tin's kinda cute, tho. | 8,482 |
1 | The Blind Side | This is a fine film and Sandra Bullock shows what a good actress she is. Comedy or drama, Sandra does well. Recommended. | 34,936 |
1 | Based on fact, not fiction | I enjoyed this book. It deals mainly with western pirates during the 'Golden Age' of piracy. Mr. Pringle compiled his information from court records of trials and other public records in England, the U.S. and the Caribbean islands,in addition to journals and other published accounts. This view is not so romantic, and does not contain the florid descriptions of many other books about pirates, but does seem more realistic. He sets the scene by describing life during the period, and in this context the pirates actions do not seem to be any more brutal than the norm, and sometimes perhaps they were more humane than their legal counterparts. He certainly makes it understandable why pirating became such a popular vocation. There are no maps but there are some illustrations. The writing style is a little dry, but for a factual account of pirates, and the pirating life, this is a good place to start. | 45,978 |
0 | This product is simply awful. If anything, it's kept my daughter up. | If you're thinking about making this purchase, think again. My daughter tried this and it actually kept her up. It's awful, and totally decieving. Do yourself a favor and buy a white noise cd, at least that is as it is advertised. | 39,308 |
0 | Gratuitous | I'm a lover of good writing and good thrillers in particular. This book is well written, however I found it sickening in its relish for brutal, evil violence, particularly to young children. Especially if you are a parent I strongly consider giving this book a miss. I bought it on the basis of exceptional reviews. I was not, however, prepared to read its content and have since removed it from my library. | 22,291 |
1 | Mystery Penned | WRITING THE MODERN MYSTERY has been treading the boards since 1986. Times have changed and the genre has convoluted in the over twenty years, but the basic concepts behind this standard work remain the same as everyone tries to write the "breakout novel," which isn't possible.Today this is a book to take chapter by chapter over a period of time paying close attention to the techniques described--fine craftmanship never changes.Writing as a Small BusinessSins of the Fathers: A Brewster County NovelGuns Across the Rio: A Texas Ranger in Old MexicoUnder the Liberty OakNatchez Above The River: A Family's Survival In The Civil WarQualifying Laps: A Brewster County Novel | 11,478 |
1 | Essential Matt Monro | If you're not familiar with Matt Monro he was one of the top vocalists of the 60's in England. This album is a gem, great jazz/pop vocals. If you like Sinatra but want something different, this is a good place to start, "From Russia With Love" alone is worth the price of the album. Also, find the song "This Is The life", it's on a few other albums of his. | 36,253 |
1 | One of the Best Inventions Ever!! | Table Toppers have got to be one of the best inventions ever! They come in an easily portable ziplock pouch, they take up very little room in a diaper bag, they adhere very well to the table and they ensure that your little one has a safe and sanitary place to eat from. My 10-month old feels like a big girl sitting at the table when we go out to eat and I feel comfortable giving her finger foods on her Table Topper. She also loves to point to the pictures of her favorite Sesame Street characters. These are a must have for any family who dines out with a little one. | 37,743 |
0 | Junk just as others have said | Reasonably put together except for the lousy gate mechanism. Just as others have said this thing only opens and closes when the unit is empty. Put any material in it and you have a gate that is stuck open with material pouring out. This unit was simply not tested in development, there is no way anyone who used this thing would approve it for mass distribution. | 34,283 |
0 | these are not 6" filters!! | I was very disappointed that the size of these filters were described as being 6" -- they absolutely are not! They are the same 12-cup 3-4" tall filters that you can buy cheaper everywhere else. I really needed taller filters and bought these and feel quite misled. | 17,017 |
0 | Really too basic... | It is too basic so it isn't at all helpful to a complete beginner and a waste of money to anyone else. Not step by step at all, more like "graded wash- a photo and a definition." I regret my purchase very much! | 13,313 |
0 | Learn by example.... | This is "learn by example" book. You can learn a lot of stuff using this paradigm, but definitely NOT sophisticated programming language. This book received extremely good reception on comp.lang.lisp - "Hey, Lisp is not dead - we have new book". Unfortunately, I don't believe that this book will play essential role in reviving Lisp. I gave up, and converted to K&R of Lisp, namely Winston and Horn | 16,234 |
0 | Useless waste of time/money | The author took a cutesy idea and stretched it out to fill a book. There is little or no useful information here for do-it-yourselfers. This whole volume could be condensed to a forgettable article in an in-flight magazine, and it would still be lame. Does not deserve the star I gave it. | 19,297 |
1 | If only I could give it 6 stars! | In this summer's most unexpected masterpiece, Dana Carvey delivers an Oscar-clinching performance as the "master of disguise," portraying a myriad of captivating and unique characters. I cannot express how important it is that you see this movie. If you're only going to see one movie this summer, or even one movie in this lifetime, it MUST be "Master of Disguise!" | 1,847 |
1 | Excellent lens for group portraits. | This lens are perfect for shooting groups of people, the AF didn't seemed slow or noisy as some reviewers claim, of course is not ultra silent or fast, but it is pretty good. The only downside of this lens are the sharpness of F 2.8 at 60 and 75 mm; In those distances the lens aren't sharp, But the problem goes away at F 4.5. And it's incredibly sharp from 28 to 50 mm. The construction, is solid, but is not all metal, in fact it has little parts metal and too many plastic parts, although it feels compact and well built. The front cap its great. The lens hood its a little weak, i'm afraid that i could break it putting it on and taking it off. I don't like the rear cap, you can only put it in one correct position. I recommend to get a nikon rear cap, which you can put it on in 3 different positions. | 44,646 |
1 | A highly recommended, comprehensive guide. | Phyllis Van Orden's Selecting Books For The Elementary School Library Media Center provides a comprehensive guide for elementary schools on the selection process, from developing criteria to using selecting tools and assessing critical media. An excellent review of the selection process. | 41,969 |
0 | not good | This product only worked for about 5 days, had to return for a refund. Dont take the time to order, unless you dont mind wasting time. I did receive full refund plus shipping, Amazon was good about that. | 1,690 |
1 | Excellent, excellent, excellent! | Very few albums (especially instrumental) can send shivers down my spine but this one did. There isn't a weak track on the whole CD. Joe is truly an ARTIST and not one of these Satch-wanna-bes who put out albums that are nothing but scale exercises done at warp 9. (Vinne Moore comes to mind) Satriani is (as always) an oasis in a wasteland of mainstream top 40 and "alternative" drivel. | 19,920 |
1 | This book is The Bomb | Hardly a child's book, but one worth reading with kids under the right circumstances. I would certainly use this with middle school students in my history class. | 23,370 |
0 | Disappointed | Like most parents and grandparents who are releated to an autistic child, I had hoped to find something useful in this DVD but really found nothing. Due to the short length and lack of content, I'll be nice and stop just short of saying it's a rip off. Don't bother buying this one. | 45,090 |
1 | Good value | I have a dog that would not take his pills,so I needed a mortar and pestle to grind them up.This was a great value because not only did I get a small one for his pills,but two larger for cooking applications,plus the price was right.They are solid,well made,dishwasher safe,and a size for every need.What more could you ask for? | 9,905 |
0 | Mostly Potential, One Hit Song (2 Reggae Golds?) | If you're looking for the Reggae Gold with artists Beenie Man, Capleton, Jah Cure, I Wayne, etc. THIS IS NOT THE REGGAE GOLD 2005 FROM VP RECORDS!These artists all have an interesting sound. The problem is only one of them seems to have what it takes for "Gold" - that is Vineyard coming through with "Stolen Legacy". Change is good, but this a complete overhaul. | 21,335 |
0 | Hard to input destinations. | The navigation was fine, but I had a hard time inputting destinations while on the road (and yes, I did pull over). The screen is tiny as well, and it doesn't scroll, so you can't just point to where you want to go on the map the way you can on some GPS units. Overall it's the interface I found cumbersome. I sent the unit back after a couple of days of trying to read the screen and scrolling past my destinations again and again. Give me a touch screen. | 3,949 |
0 | Piece of junk... | It did not do anything for me. It's a lousy piece of junk. Don't buy it. I have to say that I'm never buying a dirt devil ever again! | 2,074 |
1 | Here comes the Judge | This is another well written, informative piece of work by Mark Levin. I learn so much from reading this authors work and I look forward to reading his latest work, Ameritopia. | 37,308 |
1 | Just read and see! | This is the best Bible translation I have ever had the opportunity to read. I read in four different languages and so far this is the best, translated and interpreted Bible I have had in any language. I investigated a lot before I started meeting with the church in my city. Every accusation I encountered was either flat out a lie or a result of blindness. It troubles me that God's children are deprived from such reaches that are in the ministry of Witness Lee. We all have been gifted with a mind. If a seeking person utilizes his or her mind with an open spirit he will see what I saw in the Bible when it is opened the way it is in the Recovery version. Just read it with an open being!Most of what is said about brother Lee or the Recovery version is not the stand of the church. | 20,254 |
0 | Defective Item | As I opened the item, that was tightly packed. I noticed that the bars were not attached to the mirror. This item should have been properly assembled prior to being delivered. I'm very disappointed about the defective item and I would not recommend this item to anyone in the future. | 10,170 |
1 | Great Sound | this is the 1st time i have heard of Incubus and after buying the cd "Make yourself" i think i have found a new addition to the soundtrack of my life..the lyrics r amazing and r backed up by an awesome sound of music...this is great cd..so pick it up.. | 41,290 |
1 | Good radio | This was a good purchase. Works great. Only complaints is that some stations dont com in very clear on the FM band. I also recomend replacing the AUX cable. The one provided is not great, Other than that we cant be more pleased. | 1,478 |
1 | Better than Balderdash | Beyond Balderdash is much better than Balderdash. The definitions are weirder along with the new movie titles, peoples, dates, and initials. I don't know when I laughed as hard as I did at a board game before. It's great because the silliest definition usually happens to be correct. Every family should own this game. If you play it and don't laugh than you must be the grinch! | 22,759 |
1 | very long life | what a battery very good quality and lasts longer than the factory brand i got ........being i use my cell almost non stop some days i need something that will last and give me some life .. | 6,777 |
0 | Too stupid to be entertaining... | The problem with this film is that it doesn't know when to quit. If it's supposed to be a comedy then it should be funny, not stupid...and I love Oliver Platt, but his charactor was so retarded that he made the film almost unwatchable. The premise was neat and I love these 'huge animals take over and eat people' type films, and the croc looks awsome, but theres so much corny dialog that the film suffers becasue of it...and Bridget Fonda's charactor is so unbelievable annoying I was praying that the croc would just eat her! The ending was cool, but getting there was exasperating. I also found it humourus that they name the movie 'Lake Placid' when Lake Placid is in Florida and they were in Maine on a lake called 'Black Lake'...so why not name the movie 'Black Lake'? It just adds to the stupidity of the film. One reviewer said that this was parady...well then it should have been funny, not stupid! | 45,349 |
1 | Essential McTell | If I were looking to buy my first Ralph McTell album, this is where I would start. This live CD recorded in 1976 captures his masterful finger-style guitar and personality better than any of the "best of" compilations. | 44,645 |
0 | Worst Rip Off | "The item arrived in a carton that had been opened and repackaged. Someone had obviously opened the carton and stolen all the accessories, including Owner's Manual. When I tried to return the item, I was told it was not eligible for return. When I wrote to the manufacturer I was told that they were having technical difficulties. I have been ripped off more than $1000, with no recourse left to get my money back." | 18,815 |
0 | USED ITEM - DO NOT PURCHASE | I do not usually do this, but I thought I'd take some time out to warn all of you out there. DO NOT purchase this item through Amazon.com. They sent me a USED item that looked like it had been opened and tampered with before. There were screws falling off inside the refrigerator that didn't look like they were supposed to be falling off. The door hinge was bent up. The bottom was glued up like it had been repaired before. The outside had scuff marks all over it like it had been tossed around.I was expecting to pay for a NEW item and got someone elses USED old Refrigerator! I did not expect this buying from Amazon.com! | 3,199 |
1 | everyone should see | This video contains valuable information about what is happening to the foodchain in America. Greed has overtaken common sense. It's time to take a hard look at what we are doing. Everyone should see this video and decide for themselves if we are going in the right direction. | 11,829 |
1 | Good stuff! | This shower gel does indeed greatly lessen the chlorine smell on my skin. That's a welcome change from regular soap, particularly the foam stuff provided at the community center locker room. | 12,068 |
1 | Dear Uncle Tom "Bookdude" | Why are you trying so hard to deny this letter is real? Are you trying to convince us or yourself?Real or not you can't deny the contents of the letter are very much in effect today. Take a look around you and open your eyes you idiot! We don't need any more blacks standing up against other blacks who are looking for freedom. "Off with Uncle Tom's head" I say. If you're not for your people's freedom by any means necessary then keep your mouth shut!Great book, loved it!!! | 20,185 |
1 | Love it! | This CD has been in my possession for about 5 years, and it's still one of my favorites! It has music from very well known singers like Leonard Cohen and Van Morrison, and more obscure ones. The mix is unbeatable! | 12,854 |
1 | Music I listen to again and again. | This isn't important or innovative music, it's just beautiful. I play all three volumes of Foote's Naxos discs quietly at work again and again, and never tire of them. | 16,326 |
1 | The Pressure Parts Failure Encyclopedia | This book all though dated is a complete Encyclopedia of pressure parts failures seeing in the industry of power, chemical, & oil. Detailed to the explanation of weld defects, material defects and all types of stress, and many photos to boot. | 36,454 |
0 | Real metal treat if you like growly vocals | Listening to this album I am torn two ways. Musically I love itand yet I can't enjoy it because I really hate the vocals. So if you like Gamma Ray, Stratovarius, Helloween and the like( as I do) you may or may not like this albumdepending on whether you have the stomach for the kind of vocals that sound like they are being belched down the lavatory.I don't. | 41,632 |
0 | It never worked | I was finally able to get a professional airconditioning guy over to install the Lux TX1500 programmable thermostat this morning. Much to my dismay and disappointment, the thermostat did not work. We tried three different sets of batteries, thinking that might be the problem. He read the instructions through, thinking there might be something he might have missed. The light came on, but no display when he tried to program it. The 30 days was up for return to Amazon, and the mfg. warranty doesn't do me any good because since the old thermostat (that was 16 years old) was off, and inefficient, I just bought a new standard thermostat and had it installed. I didn't have time to fool around with trying to return this one, get a new one from the company and try to schedule the busy airconditioning people in hot Yuma again. Oh well, lesson learned. | 2,162 |
1 | charming | very few times i am actually...charmed by horror. but this is charming. you get taken away by bloch's style. naive, simple, but it does not matter. because that is what enthralls you. good stories, a great many of them. some are not so naive. some even contain pretty good description. bloch has a sort of "fresh" style, which makes the story pretty good even if they don't seem original. this collection also contains a real masterpiece, psychologically one of the best written horror stories of all times: the sorceror's apprentice. somehow i always end up thinking about tales from the crypt when reading this collection. | 12,593 |
1 | A Modern Day Fairy Tale Classic | One of my absolute favorites, this gem of a film is a comedy, a drama, a romance and a fantasy film all rolled into one. Combined with the twisted & irreverent filmmaking style of Terry Gilliam ("12 Monkeys" and "Time Bandits") this film is not for everyone, but for those who like something different and maybe even a little magical, you can't go wrong with this one. Robin Williams and Jeff Bridges are two men from two different worlds, but both lost and in pain. Mercedes Ruehl and Amanda Plummer are the women in their lives. When circumstanes bring them together, they are able to save one another. A sadly overlooked film filled with wonderment and, in the end, joy. | 1,941 |
1 | Mahalia's xmas | During the xmas season if one is in the mood for Mahalia this is a good purchase to set the mood. | 17,854 |
1 | Great Book | this book gives you a great detail on how to interpret art. I learned so much from it, and now, I feel like I can relate to all types of art. I never got tired of reading it, and I even loved the pictures being detailed and interpreted in there. | 36,344 |
0 | Is there a ZERO star option? | I have loved the Alan Gregory series up to this point.....this isn't really an Alan Gregory book. He appears for only a few short pages. This book was outrageous and so far over the top that I had to force myself to complete it just to see how it ended. Not that I cared but I had paid for it and wanted to complete it. I know Stephen White can do better. If you have read only this book and did not like it do not let that deter you from purchasing other Alan Gregory books by Mr. White. They are usually a good read. | 15,074 |
1 | Buying Used is the Way to Go | Buying a used DVD series made me a little nervous, but this was one of my best ideas. The DVDs all work great, very little scratches, and have no problems playing. I made sure to buy from a company who would refund or exchange my purchase within two weeks to a month, just in case.If you're concerned about whether you will like the Spartacus series, don't be. The acting is superb and the story will have you hanging on the edge of your seat in suspense. If you love the Dexter series, Spartacus will not disappoint you. | 10,842 |
0 | Theater Projector Ceiling Mount | Would not fit my new Optima HD20 projector -- as projectors get smaller the mounting holes get closer together -- this mount had four arms and the projector had three -- the mount had arms that would not get short enough to reach the three projector holes -- for larger projectors may work better, but for mine would not recommend -- returning it was very easy and the company representatives very helpful -- so if you get it and it doesn't work, the company is easy to work with -- | 6,352 |

0 | Squandered Opportunity | Much of what David Kupelian writes about in "The Marketing of Evil" is deeply troubling. Unfortunately, the book suffers from the same basic problems as the news stories on Mr. Kupelian's website WorldNetDaily: poor writing and an excess of "spin". His basic premises may be valid, but the way he puts forth his arguments are completely over-the-top.He also suffers from the delusion that everyone who believes in traditional Judeo-Christian morality also agrees 100% with the Republican agenda when it comes to other issues. There are many religious believers out there who are conservative on sexual morality but liberal on things like the environment, the Middle East, social justice, multiculturalism, etc.It's really too bad that this book wasn't better written, as its message is an important one for people to hear. | 48,997 |
0 | Reverberating repetitions | It's hard to see this stoned early electronica as much more than an intriguing opening act for someone like Kraftwerk; even with its textural zest there is just too much droning negative space to keep the few lengthy tracks sounding more than exercises in sequencing. | 20,181 |
1 | Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets | This continuation of the Potter series was as enjoyable as tFirst. Can't wait for the next book. Love il. | 46,407 |
1 | This works well for our special needs guy! | This foot rest has been such a help for our little guy who wears braces and need a comfy place to rest his feet. We've had no problem with adjustments or installation. | 29,284 |
1 | it was good | It was a good book. I enjoyed it but I wasn't wowed by it. It had a good story line but was slow in some spots. | 5,108 |
1 | Getting in touch with Raylan's roots | I am a devoted fan of JUSTIFIED, and I had to read the Elmore Leonard books that established the character. REALLY enjoy reading the books; I just envision the TV characters as I read, which is so the opposite of how I generally experience books and tv shows or movies. But I love Leonard's style. | 45,361 |
1 | Move over cookie monster!! | I was getting bored eating the same old cookies I would buy at the store. With this book it would take years to try them all. 1001 recipes on making cookies of every type, texture, and way you could imagine. It is impossible to get bored with this book. I spent hours just trying to decide which cookie to make today and which tomorrow. I can't eat them fast enough to bake another style. You can never be to old or to young for cookies. Get this book, you won't be sorry. | 48,831 |
0 | JUNK | WELL FRIENDS EVERY STREET IS THE WORST DIRE STRAIT ALBUM.ONLY THEIR DEBUT AND BROTHERS IN ARMS ARE WORTH A LISTEN.HEAVY FUEL AND TELEGRAPH ROAD SUCKS.THIS ALBUM IS BAD AND ONLY RECOMMENDED TO PEOPLE WITH POOR TASTE.DISPOSE OFF THIS ALBUM AND BUY ANY ALBUM FROM ICONS LIKE LED ZEPPELIN,PINK FLOYD,LYNYRD SKYNYRD,THE WHO AND THE ROLLING STONES INSTEAD. | 10,902 |
0 | 1 Star was generious with this Rag ! | I wish I could have examened this Rag before I purchased it. Weak Blues bars, poor Riff's. Over all a poor choise for a serious blues guitar player. | 41,928 |
1 | Aging hippie cream | Love it my psoriasis is almost gone will def buy more and it shipped so fast it is absolutely wonderful | 8,141 |
0 | Might be OK if You Have a PhD in Statistics... | I purchased and read this book as a companion to purchasing Crystal Ball. This book was of no use whatsoever. The authors bombard the reader with complex equations without any examples of real world monte carlo applications. Highly theoretical and the theory is beyond comprehension for those who aren't expert statisticians. I did not even keep this book on hand as a reference. Total waste of money and I can only conclude the 5 star ratings are paid reviews. | 45,048 |
1 | A good example of club life... | Buy this CD for the quality and especially, especially for Dancing Sparks by A Jolly Good Fellow. Blue Orgasm is another goody. A good purchase. | 7,012 |
1 | Review of Wet and Wired | I assume this should get a high rating because my son-in-law asked for it spectifically for Christmas. I don't actually know anything about it. | 38,716 |
0 | Agree with Same 'Ol Same 'Ol | I agree with what he/she said. Ask and it is given was a wonderful book. This one seems to just be an effort to profit more - - same information. Disappointing. | 9,201 |
1 | Sugar cubes come out great in this! | As an avid tea drinker I bought this mold to make heart shaped sugar cubes for valentines day. The mold is smooth and the perfect size for a generous sugar drop. I'm online again to see what other shapes I can get from Wilton. Overall this is your cuter-than-basic, thin plastic candy mold for basic candy-making projects. | 1,394 |
1 | It was all right! | For those of you who hate Stalin's guts, this is the biography for you! For those of you that sympathise with Stalin, it has potentual but not quite there! For those of you who want to see Stalin take Hitler down, well that's another story.Its a good biography, but some of it was information back from 2003 or 2004, so some of it might be outdated or might be useless. Either way its good, I mean for me it was ok. But I kind of wish they would have talked more about his personal life and his second wife's mental unstableness. But whatever!Just enjoy! | 21,696 |
0 | its ok | I like this chair but it does move a lot in the bathtub when baby moves around the chair tilts a little. for the price, I dont recommend it. | 15,062 |

0 | Better Products out there | I bought this based on price. I had an older Black & Decker that eventually stop working after on to many falls that was much better. Campbell looks nice but it seems underpowered compared the the old B&D I had. Takes a long time to blow up basic things | 26,787 |
0 | Bad Apples like Wesseley Ruin it | This is an unusual book in the genre of fatigue and illnesses that cause it. I would never expect to see a book that included a section by simon wesseley and one on ME (aka cfs) as a psychiatric illness (!) alongside articles by Leonard Jason and Nancy Klimas. The latter two are incredible scientists who have done so much to advance knowledge, while Simon Wessely does all he can to muddy the waters with his own anti-scientific biases. Nancy Klimas is one of the world's foremost authorities and bench scientists on both ME and AIDS. She and her team write an article under the "Physical Diseases" section on "Neuro Endocrine Immune Disease" i.e. ME while the "Psychiatric Diseases" has an article on "CFS" (ME). Bizarre.I laud the good science in this, but the bad science is so horrendous it is the bad apples that spoil the whole barrel.For the real story of ME read the amazingOsler's Web: Inside the Labyrinth of the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome EpidemicYou can thank me later! | 10,669 |
0 | Gilligan's or Fantasy Island | "Paradise" is actually the coast of Australia, where this 1989 made-for-TV adventure was filmed. Raquel Welch stars as a rich, spoiled socialite who is shipwrecked on a desert island. Her only companion is boozy, unkempt Aussie Jack Thompson. Before the film has a chance to turn into Lina Wertmuller's Swept Away (or even Gilligan's Island), Welch and Thompson are up to their necks in intrigue. Better to see "Six Days and Seven Nights", Same plot - better story. Better to see "Fathom", different Raquel - better bathing suit. | 19,719 |
0 | some missed typng | The keyboard sometimes misses, I believe because of signal interruption. This is a real hassle, It is nt from lack of keypad pressure on my part. I also agree that the extra buttons don't work and the software was no help. It really stinks. | 2,519 |
0 | poor text book | This textbook was used in my class at tech school. It is very poorly organized and written. [...] | 15,486 |
0 | what happened 2 da real avril??? | i dont know what happened 2 avril but i hate it. this CD is all gothic and moody and shes tryin 2 sing hi notes 2 much. she totally lost her style and now she looks and sings like a prostitute. also, she isnt articulate at all. she just kinda moans and groans about her "pain" too much. she also throws random swears into her songs 4 no reason. she could choose other words 2 use in their place, but i think she wants to sound cool or somethin'. shes only got 2 semi-good songs on the whole CD, My Happy Ending & Nobody's Home. (she also had no sense of style for the CD photos. she has this really tacky poofy skirt for most of da pics, & they're not even halfway down 2 her knees. she wears black makeup, 2.) | 36,170 |
1 | Great introduction to science for elementary students | My 7 year old grandson loves this series, and this book in particular. He enjoys the text and also reads some of the pupils' comments/ assignments, so reading is different each time. | 44,777 |
