1 | electric garden | this a great poken deck for starters and seniors of pokemon cards. I probably spent hours with this deck as it is helpful to your deck | 43,138 |
1 | Great character, with marvelous techno details! | A great book, with a nicely developed herione, who has a knack for getting into her work. I truly enjoyed the technologic aspect of her work as a forensic anthropologist. Nice background work incorporating the geography and demographics of the region. Will look forward to more works from this author. | 15,266 |
0 | Strange. | Sick and shallow,Pearl Harbor might have been a better film with more guts and less gloss.Don't go expecting a history lesson and don't go expecting another Titanic.The love story was banal | 31,723 |
1 | Great Game For HL Lovers and Newbies | Being a huge fan of the HL series from inception, I was more excited than Mick Jagger at a fashion show. Despite the monster install session (1 Hour) and Valve's Steam engine annoyances I got it all up and running and I quickly got thrown into the best 1st person shooter I have ever seen. Game play is intense, story line compelling, and the physics engine is a blast since you can pick up, throw, and shoot just about anything with real world like consequences. And the Gravity Gun. Come on! I wish I had one of those to use around the office.If you claim to be a gamer you will be a hack if this isn't in your pantheon of fine games. Word! | 19,489 |
0 | Nice cleaner, terrible for scratch removal... | This is a really nice cleaner but it terms of removing scratches, it only removes little insignificant scratches. | 43,383 |
0 | Amazing Nature | Nature may be amazing, but this 3D DVD is not. I could play the DVD, but only in German. I could not access anything on the menu. Furthermore, I only ordered one, but got and paid for two of these worthless DVDs. I would have sent one to my sister who has a new 3D television, but since they don't play in English, I guess I will attempt to send both back to Amazon. | 10,419 |
0 | Boring, Self-Censored. | Someone who's still a politician, thinking of running for President, is obviously not going to be very candid and honest. That's exactly what you get in this book. It's boring because it's obviously self-censored, and you wonder how much is spin and how much is true. Borrow it from a library and save your money. | 23,378 |
1 | Let the good times roll again...... | Warrant = good time rock band. Longevity has helped this band continue to deliver music to its die hard fans. Jani's vocals set Warrant apart from the rest of the hard rock genre. A collection of covers where each song is stamped with a thud by the Warrant trademark.....good time rock! Two new tracks by Warrant make this album worth buying without the covers. | 14,583 |

1 | Good Value for the Price | I've used this product once so far. Though I could see how it would not stand up to really heavy use, it seems that it will fit my needs well. I plan to use it for cross training once or twice a week. Assembly was fairly straight forward. Overall, I'm pleased with it so far. | 21,355 |
0 | Spend a few more bucks | Spend a few more bucks.The cord is ridiculously short! 24 inches or so. As you have to hold the button down the entire time it grinds, you will probably need an extension cord or you must stand CLOSE to an outlet. My biggest complaint.The Chamber Maid Cleaning System is mediocre and just a bit functional. Not a real selling point and shouldn't have been used in the name of the product as such. I use a brush from an old system to get it all out,It does a good job at grinding. If that is all you're interested in, go for. | 46,256 |
1 | the greatest book ever | I loved your book it was the best book i have ever read and I read alot and I am a crazy teen and this book is out of control and it made my heart sink. thank you for writing this book and I mean thank you | 35,162 |
1 | Arnie | I purchased this video for my Grandson who saw it at Kaleidoscope in Kansas City. He fell in love with it. Great story and the donuts talks! | 46,266 |
1 | awesomely addicting | this show is fantastic... it sucks you in - so make sure you've got time to invest because you're not gonna want to quit watching. | 18,341 |
1 | Awareness in the Arab World | This book has done an excellant job of making the Arab world aware of the Palestinian problem and the reasons for the problem. Chapter 46 titled The Final Stage says it all. Thank-you Mr. Said. | 2,435 |
1 | Brilliant evocation of an ideal way to live | I just love this book. The evocative messages are an inspiration. Don't just look at the pictures - read this book! | 17,902 |
1 | Pocket-sized fun. | I must admit I was more than shocked when I opened my Amazon box and found this book. It is so small!!!! Size does matter!!!However, to be fair, I started to read. It is surprisingly full of great tips! (I was worried that it was going to be some rip-off gift book).I liked the tip about excess use of eye cream (result: puffy morning eyes), showering a few hours before going out (your own sex smell won't be overpowered) and not washing your hair right before coloring (roots show up better).As long as you are prepared for a hand-sized book, it's worth the price with lots of ah hah's! | 41,720 |
0 | Too easy to relate to. | The first reviewer was right. This bok was far too easy to relate to. Because it could easily happen. And it did happen to me. I didn't like this book because it struck too close to home and it hurt me to read it. But that's just me. You might like it. | 39,834 |
0 | Not as advertised | I bought the music box specifically because it is alleged to play "how much is that doggie in the window." The one I received looks good and works well, but plays "Brahm's lullaby." Unacceptable | 9,611 |
1 | Clay Aiken's Measure of a Man cd | I happen to love Measure of a Man by Clay Aiken! His voice is just so pure and just a pleasure to listen to!All the songs have a meaning to them that anyone listening could find something to fit their lives!I listen to this cd daily, that is why I have to have multible copies! | 41,541 |
0 | The worst vacuum ever | This vacuum is by far the worst I've ever had. It was heavy and awkward and didn't fit well between tables, etc. The duster and it's holder did not stay in place and was constantly swaying when I moved the machine. The duster also would not stay snapped in the holder. The attachment hose was always coming out of its holder so the vacuum would not suck properly. This vacuum has two sections on the on/off switch. The first is for bare floors and the second for carpets. The bare floors did not suck anything off my floors. It only shot the dirt out behind the vacuum hitting my legs.I was very excited when I first saw the commercial but after two cleanings, I got tired of sweeping my bare floors with a broom and then using the suction tool to pick-up the dirt.I promptly returned this vacuum and gave in and purchased a Dyson. This was well worth the money. The Dyson is fantastic. I'm only sorry I had to waste time and gas with the Eureka 4D. | 38,292 |
1 | Wonderful! | Really enjoyed this. The graphics didn't seem too overwhelming. The music selection was lovely. I could have done without the quick nipple shot of the goddess (see the "morning" section) but it was extremely brief and in my opinion acceptable. | 28,055 |
1 | So many features!! | I bought this phone and didn't realize how many features it has. You can program one phone with all your phone numbers and then "send" that info to the other phones so you don't have to program all of them. The phone also has a 2 way, but I have never used it. I do use the room monitor mode, and the intercom is wonderful provided you remember what number phone is in what room. My solution is I have the phones numbered according to what floor they are on in the house. The cordless range is good, I can take my phone to the neighbor's house and it works pretty good. The only problem with this phone is the battery. You really need to get new batteries that are not made by panasonic. Energizers seem to work well and I bought them on Amazon, they were 1/2 price compared to Best Buy! | 42,799 |
1 | Much softer than original | My mom has always used the original Scott bath tissue. One word- sandpaper (or is that 2 words?). But, she has a day care and she likes the fact that it has so many more sheets per roll than the average paper.I thought I'd give the extra soft scott a try and I was very happy with it. It's soft (not as soft as some other brands, but soft enough) and the rolls seem to last forever, even with a 2 year old in the house (pottytrained- yay!). I'll buy this brand from now on. | 31,171 |
0 | What the.... | Totally strange. How did they get such big stars to be in this dog?? I guess I thought with such big names it would better. | 16,048 |
0 | Bad surprise from a prestige brand | In terms of design and ergonomic (is very confortable on the wrist) I am very happy.The big negative surprise is the accuracy, each 24hours it adds 20 seconds , what is unacceptable for a $1000 watch.Because I order from USA to Europe the return is a problem and the warranty is not valid because Amazon (seller) is not an authorized agent.It seems that this problem is common with TAG watches. | 30,529 |
0 | Not reliable | Within two months the data transfer failed. No fixing it. This is a common problem. If you take a look around, you will see I was not the only one. | 28,480 |
1 | Dang! | I asked for the loudest smallest horn I could get, and this one delivers! Now I look for opportunities to use it. Holy cow it's loud!!! Be safe, order yours NOW!!! | 10,730 |
0 | Decent | I enjoyed the story behind this book. I did not, however, like the writing style. I kept needing to look back at the beginning of each chapter to determine who was the character speaking. They all had the same type of thoughts and therefore it sounded like one narrator when in fact is was supposed to be a different character each time. It had a pretty good story behind it though so overall I'd say that it was a decent book. The writing was a little bit too distracting for me with all the characters sounding the same, at some points it was difficult for me to pay attention to the reading because I was so bothered by the fact that there was no definition to the character's 'voices'. I can still say that I would recommend this book to another person, so long as they are aware that the writing style is dissapointing. | 10,609 |
0 | Ego + Ego+ More Ego= Don't waste your money. | As an avid fan of the sport of horse racing and owner of several race horses I purchased "Horse of a Different Color" eager to glean from it's pages the 'secret' of one who had attained the improbable. Winning the Kentucky Derby is something we all dream about.Unfortunately, this boorish narrative begins with and maintains the overwhelming self-aggrandizement found in too many people involved in the sport of racing. Upon reaching page 175 I put the book back on my book shelf and have no plans to re-open it.What could have been a wonderful story about an unlikely champion was, in fact, one man's story about what is clearly his favorite subject: himself. With so many other wonderful books available on the champions of horse racing I would recommend passing on this one to take a chance on any other. | 8,615 |
1 | my fave!! | I found these workouts on youtube. They became my favorite dvd. I own. Great workout and have a great time doing it. Have tons of energy afterwards. One of Billy's best in my opinion. Ive only done the basic training though. Ive watched the ultimate and still waiting a little bit longer before trying it. Looks challenging and want to make sure I have the basic workout down first. Love this so much I had to own. Afraid it'd be taken down on youtube and wanted to have in my own collection | 25,440 |
1 | This book was ridiculous | The Good: This book is all good. Lynch as a flow about his writing that allows readers to flip through quickly and enjoy every bit. He is descritptive without being overbearing and the characters are enjoyable and have their own personalities. The ending is biting, brutal without being overly grotesque, and overall satsifying.The Bad: Throughout the book Lynch has included "intermissions" where the main story veers off and he examines a back story or historical footnote. This wasn't too bad but I found I was skipping past some pages because I was so enthralled by what was actually happening and cared less about the footnotes.The Ugly: F-bombs. There are a lot of f-bombs in this book. Personally I did not care but for someone who isn't ready for it, it can be a bit of a surprise. I actually think they added the necessary grit but others may not think so.The Verdict: If you don't mind the cursing, then read this book. You will not be let down. | 45,306 |
0 | Autumn Leaves Stan Getz | The physical CD was in good condition. I was very dusappointed in Stan Getz's performance of Autumn Leaves and the other selections on this recording. It seemed as if he was in a big hurry to finish this gig.Frank Consolo | 21,143 |
0 | Weak brew | The name is deceiving. Though this tea is aromatic, you'll be better off smelling it instead of drinking it. Takes a long time or multiple tea bags for a strong brew. Sickeningly "sweet" with too much vanilla flavor. Move on and try something else. | 43,334 |
0 | The best worm book written - I've read most | This book is by far the best all around worm guide I have ever read. It contains the most comprehensive information available to start raising worms for home use or profit. | 42,629 |
0 | ONE UGLY LIGHT | THIS IS ONE UGLY LOOKING LIGHT. EVEN STREET LIGHTS LOOK MORE ATTRACTIVE THAN THIS.DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT BUYING IT. | 23,405 |
1 | Very helpful! | I read previous reviews about this study book and have to agree that it is an excellent resource for preparing to take the NBCOT exam. The questions asked resemble those on the exam, but I actually found this book most helpful in that it gave me insight into what I DIDN'T know and thus needed to study. I started my study process by taking Exam 1, studied the subject areas where I scored the weakest, then took Exam 2, etc.....Used in conjunction with the online tests NBCOT offers and my own study notes I felt very well prepared to take the exam and earned a passing score. Good luck and happy studying! | 24,308 |
0 | The Brethern | This is clearly John Grisham's weakest effort to date. The characters are not fully developed and those with the most to exploit, Aaron Lake, the presidential candidate, and Teddy Maynard, the reclusive CIA Director, drop off the face of the earth in the end. There is little suspense and none of the storytelling or intriguing characters that "Testamant" or "Runaway Jury" can claim. I am disappointed with this volume and will be careful when picking up the next Grisham installment. I can't imagine that this meets with the standards that avid Grisham readers have come to expect. | 1,756 |
0 | The Tenth Circle Tries to Do Too Much and Does It Predictably | I am an avid reader of Picoult's books, but this one was a disappointment. The plot tries to cover too many diverse topics (young love, rape, self-mutilation, suicide, murder, adultery, graphic novels, and Dante's Inferno just to name a few!) Much of what happens is either totally predictable or totally implausible; not a good combination for contemporary fiction. | 10,797 |
1 | Easy going | I love Sara Ivanhoe! She presents yoga in very easy to learn non-intimidating way. The yoga is relaxing and she has a modifier showing easier versions. It's go at your own pace- don't overdo it yoga. | 17,120 |
1 | Too funny! | This is by far the funniest video I have ever seen. You will just laugh and luagh and laugh. Loretta will teach you how to get rid of "stress." I recommend you buying this video-and buying another one too because you'll want to share it with everyone-and they'll want to steal yours! =) | 34,380 |
1 | Outstanding | As a purist myself, I wasn't sure I'd like this, but these artists have managed to do something very difficult -- they have been true to the intentions of the original while making it fresh again and finally more relevent to a new generation. If Rice & Lloyd Webber were writing it today, it would sound like this. It is an exceptional album, and though it will never replace the original, it is just as valid and just as much fun. (And "King Herod's Song" actually sounds like it belongs in the show -- at last..!) | 28,522 |
0 | Cheaply constructed, power cord didn't stay plugged in! | The cheapest construction imaginable -- we literally had to hold the power connection with our hands to keep it from falling out. Save your time, save your money, and go with another product. | 7,039 |
0 | Don't Buy This! | I bought this tub because my husband liked the shower feature. It worked about 3 times then quit working. My daugther was also very uncomfortable in the tub and cried her head off. I ended up buying the sure comfort tub that is half the price and it works perfect. I just use a tupperware cup and it works way better than the shower. She now enjoys her bath. I ended up selling this tub at a garage sale for a couple of bucks. I would not buy it again and would not recommend it at all. | 5,854 |
0 | simply weak | Aside from being almost 100% ... from the russian book by N.Cherkashin, this made-for-american-house-wives booklet reads almost like a Disney version of "Das Boot".The chronology is good BUT it is available on about 100 websites now, anyway.The writing style is that of a village daily reporter. The usual american stereotypes about Russia are omnipresent and do not fit well at all with the hero-submariner image.Finaly: if Burleson wanted to write a good book, he should have gone to Russia to do research! Instead he browses the internet and reads a Russian author. Voila, "Kursk Down" is born. | 12,634 |
0 | Non-Functioning | I received a non functioning product in a package that was clearly resealed. Lucky me. | 23,598 |
1 | EXCELLENT!! | This book is a HUGE help if your looking into an EMT career. It tells you everything you need to know and advancements you can make in this field!~ Highly Recommended!***** | 47,538 |
0 | To Die For | This is definitely one of the worse books that I have ever read. Thank god I didn't buy it, but got it from the library. As some of the others reviewers have stated, the book is just filled with fluff and lots of inconsequential information. I found myself skipping over pages and pages of could-care-less info. The female lead was so weak and mealy-mouthed...the fact that the male lead simply had to look at her neck and she would get all weak-knee and fall into bed with him, was just pathetic.I've read a few of Howard's books and thought they were great, but her last two have been simply nauseating...I couldn't even finish "To Die For". Yech! | 9,014 |
1 | A great book for Reiki practitioners | I don't think William wrote this book to advertise his Reiki Centre. In the opposite I think he wrote this book with the loving intention to benefit those who would like to know more about Reiki. I read this book as a supplement to my Reiki I & II training. It served that purpose. The hand-position illustration and symbol section were great. Besides William lead us to think ahead of how we gonna do with Reiki which I think is very inspiring. The information in the appendices are very useful. I highly recommend this book to all Reiki practitioners and those who are interested in Reiki. | 36,231 |
1 | neat compact map | very useful map. folds up for easy storage in glovebox or side pocket of door.easy to read. laminated for lot's of ware. | 46,473 |
1 | Recommended reading for both Catholic clergy and laity | Deftly written by Donald Cozzens (a Catholic priest and teacher of religious studies at John Carroll University), Sacred Silence: Denial And The Crisis In The Church is an unflinching examination of the Catholic Church and its current troubles that even as this review is written has resulted in the removal of the American Archbishop Cardinal Bernard Law from his post. Addressing not only issues of sexual abuse allegations, Sacred Silence expands into the question of why the church is so controlling, and how it needs to change to become more responsive to the people it serves worldwide. Sacred Silence is very strongly recommended reading for both Catholic clergy and laity, as well as non-Catholics with an interest the administrative and public relations problems of clerical misconduct to wreak upon their own religious communities and institutions. | 48,838 |
0 | OK except that it smells terrible | I bought this drum for someone else in the household, who loves playing it. Otherwise, I'd give it away or even throw it away, because after several months it still smells terrible. At first I thought it was just out-gassing and that the smell would go away -- but it hasn't. It still has that awful "made in China" odor that some things have. It smells toxic, really bad. As soon as I can replace it with one I can buy from a store (and smell first) I will. Meanwhile, I don't recommend it unless you're willing to return it right away if you get one that smells bad. | 32,524 |
1 | Awesome Hard Techno!!! | Ok, there are several tracks on here which you can find on 'The World Of Gabber' which are infact longer, many tracks on here are not thier full length. Still.. if you manage to cough up money for this collection, i would!! This is the best 4 disc collection i have found & i felt i got my money's worth on this!! However i hate it when they say its the 'Ultimate' collection.. cuz they did leave alot out. Some of the tracks on here arent even worth it. And they still had room for more stuff or to make the tracks longer. Either way this is a good cd to buy! Also if you like "The Nightmare" on this cd make sure you get 'Techno Trax Vol 7' for the full version!! | 22,023 |
0 | mind numbingly boring repetition | After seeing the first series, I thought (hoped) that intelligence had started to find it's way back to humor. With the second series, I see that I was wrong. Horribly wrong. In the former, we were introduced to these characters, and with each new scene, a new quirk or tidbit was released to us. In the latter, there is no development at all. It is formulaic. The characters basically do the same thing, again and again, without even much of a change in scenery. Messrs. Walliams and Lucas do not challenge themselves to broaden these individuals in the least, which I find all the more egregious because they have an unerring eye for detail. Perhaps the grind of a series is too much for them. It certainly seems that they have stopped caring. If you like to "parrot" characters verbatim, play drinking games by shouting out what's coming next in a scene, or find that you've been attracted to Saturday Night Live post 1979, you might like this. I was acutely disappointed. | 22,851 |
1 | Great Knife | I was surprised that this knife delivered as promised for such a bargain price. I have used it daily since receiving it and have not yet had to sharpen it. I hope that continues. | 48,381 |
1 | Takes you to a whole different level physically and mentally | When I first started doing the Hot Point Fitness Program I was skeptical but I decided to go ahead and try it, I already had tried dozens of diets and programs and had some resultas but none that lasted. When I started the hot point fitness program I saw results in the first week!! That has never happen to me. What I thought the best part for me was that there were 3 different stages of workouts. You don't jump into anything you'r not ready for. You gradually work up to your bodies peek. In this first month I already lost 31/2 inches around my waist and I feel great, can't wait unitll im finishrd! Thanks Steve for helping me in my transformation!! Its a Blast! | 6,017 |
0 | Better have low expectations to be happy | Ghost busters suit was just fine. Worked great but the back back never would blow up and hold air. Gun is a joke. The gun needs alot of redesigning. This costume is good for kids but for adult better have backup plan for back pack and gun..suit no problem. Wore mine on halloween night with my kid so it served its purpose. | 14,186 |
0 | Never again! | I was not pleased with this product because it contains mineral oil. Another ingredient is listed and I have no idea what it is. | 23,400 |
0 | Burns out quickly | I purchase mine from a drugstore. Three months later it stopped working. I think it would be OK for occasional use only. | 26,315 |
0 | Typical creationist apologetics | This "reference guide" lists the generally discredited creationist "explanations" of flood geology, geophysics, polystratic fossils and the other typical creationist arguments.If you are a special creation beliver don't rely on this book to refute well informed scientists, but it is sufficient for typical "lay" persons. That is to say, people who don't know what's wrong with it won't have answers to it. Problem is, the book itself is fact-free. Nothing in it is right. Informed lay people or scientists will have refutation for each and every argument in the book.Pretty much, it's a waste of time. | 43,597 |
0 | Too general ... no case studies, examples, best practices | Book provides very general high level overview of PM. It does not get into details such as case studies, examples or best practices, documentation etc. You can read the same information on the web freely. | 18,685 |
1 | Leaves me always wanting more! | In lew of the fact that this album came out a while ago, many are anticipating The Shins next bold move. I am an avid Shins fan, and this album didn't dissapoint me one bit. The melodies are fresh and enlightening- and James Mercer's voice is comforting in spite of some dark lyrics. Some are political, some are of course about love. Pink Bullets is by far the most original song I have ever heard. From the constant strumming of acoustic guitar riffs to the sweet harmonica that comes in at just the right time. I have listened to this song over and over and can't seem to get tired of it! That's when you know you have found something special!This album is full of worthy songs, funky CD art and is totally worth the 15 bucks. Heck, I would pay 30. Maybe even 50. Can't wait to see what else they have in store this coming year. | 5,792 |
1 | Wow! | Ms. Kleypas writes so well, it's almost frightening! I'm slowly working my way through all of her books and I will be disappointed when I have read everything that she has written. This particular book, "Midnight Angel", is so stunningly well-conceived, well-written, and well-plotted that you will fly through the pages in no time flat!The author mixes outrageous situations, lovable characters, a fascinating setting, and a sprinkle of dark magic with a deft and skillful hand. The characters seem so real that you might swear to yourself that you have actually met them when all is said and done! In addition, Ms. Kleypas' dedication to lively and unique historical details is just plain fun.This book is more than just a page-turner -- it's a remarkable achievement. Don't miss it, or you'll miss out! | 48,551 |
1 | Tiffany: strong point of the album. | If you can't stand U2's songs, hate the band, or hate tribute albums, buy this album just for Tiffany. Listening to her voice is worth the 12 bucks - Tiffany's voice is priceless. Her 4 minutes make the whole album worth it. | 10,661 |
0 | Too simpler a sampler | The main fault of THE SAMPLER isn't it's playlist, which is perfect for introducing newcomers to the classical genre. Rather, this CD is a failure specifically due to inadequate musician skills. The soloists in particular sound fairly dreadful. On the full orchestral selections, the wrong instruments get emphasized, and there's a total lack of expression and nuance throughout. To listen to these, one would think that all classical music is lifelessly dull and trite, and of course IT ISN'T!MADACY blows it again. Not recommended. (1 stars) | 23,646 |
1 | Lovable Psychopath | Who cannot like Dexter? He's the perfect boyfriend, a loving brother, the friendly co-worker who brings in donuts for his officemates. Smart, good-looking, funny...oh so what if he has one little character flaw? Ok, a big flaw. Ha, ha. But I dare anyone to say they don't like the guy. Michael C. Hall is an amazing actor who has managed to make a psychopath lovable. I love this show! | 46,888 |
1 | mattress | Can't wait to use this for our son due in February. It's pleasantly thick and cushy, honestly much nicer than the one we got for our daughter when she was born in '07. It also fits the crib we bought like a glove but not too tightly to change sheets. Very pleased with our purchase. | 18,833 |
1 | Best on the Market! | I've always liked Panasonic. The seller was very prompt; I had the product in 4 days. Overall grade - A! | 38,096 |
1 | One of the best ghost DVD collections.... | This collection is truly great and one of my favs. I am really happy that they have spent the time to gather all the episodes and took the time to share these stories on a great DVD collection. If you believe or not you have to agree that the stories are truly interesting. Worth the time and the money. | 33,256 |
1 | fun! | Good for any flower girl between the ages of 5 and 7. Sticker paper dolls are always popular with little girls | 8,656 |
1 | Great product! | Used it to connect my son's older laptop to my home WiFi network. It only took a couple of minutes to install the drivers and connect to the network. Can't beat it for the price or ease of use. | 22,776 |
0 | Probably not what you want | I love the ETX 70, it's a cheap but good rich field telescope. But this isn't the best way to improve it. There are two problems really. The first is that the ETX 70 doesn't take this much magnification very well for various reasons, both optical and mechanical. The other is that the quality of this eyepiece is not good. Admittedly it's cheap, but for only a little more, you can buy a good quality orthoscopic (I'd recommmend a bit longer focal length). Or buy a barlow that doubles the magnification of your supplied 9mm eyepiece (so you can see for yourself what I mean about too much magnification) but also doubles your supplied 25mm to a very useful 28x so you don't waste your money. | 17,648 |
1 | TomTom Remote | This is an outstanding product! It works well with my Go 500. It nice to know that I will not have to reach over or pull off the highway to change any settings. It is very easy to use. It will access all the menu items. Highly recommend to anyone who owns a TomTom. | 29,225 |
1 | Great Starting Point | As a young ED sufferer, I was in love with this book. Prior to Marya Hornbacher's "Wasted" I feel this was probably the best piece of literature out there for someone looking to understand the mindset of the eating disordered individual. Now that I have matured along with my disease, I find the author's simplified view of recovery to be at least mildly unrealistic (granted there are sufferers caught early enough that recovery isn't as difficult as it has proven to be for me). This is a great book for a young reader, ages 12-15. Now that I'm in my early 20s it doesn't hold the same magic that it once did for me, but I certainly recommend it as a great starting point if you're delving into the world of eating disorder literature. | 43,061 |
1 | Fascinating Fascination | Absolutely gorgeous. They don't make singers like her anymore. Unbelievably romantic. Great too if you love violins. | 20,011 |
0 | Count me in the "it leaks and it sticks" group | Saw these in a local kitchen shop and thought they were adorable. Problem is they don't lie flat on my non-stick pan. I have only tried fried eggs in them and so the egg whites ooze out where there are gaps. 80% of the shape is intact, so I use a rubber spatula to cut off the spillage and then dump it back into the mold before flipping. So, the result looked pretty good, but if I wanted to cut it, I would have just done so.The other problem is that they are very non-non-stick. That is, they are very sticky. I tried spraying them with olive oil the second time I used them and it still stuck just as badly. The second time, egg squeezed into the seam at the bottom of the heart (where the handle is) and it was very hard to get out. | 1,482 |
0 | An exercise in self-pity | This books suffers a bit too much from the author's chaotic musings about anything that just happens to pop into his mind. Based on notes he made in the field during World War II, the author spends too much time revisiting his every thought instead of describing what was going on. The book does provide a fairly good perspective of a well-educated infantryman in the war if you are willing to skim over page after page of annoying "holier-than-thou" philosophizing. But what is worse about this book is the pervasive atmosphere of self-pity that the author exudes. I sometimes get the impression the author feels that destroying Nazi Germany wasn't worth the effort because it was too much of an inconvenience on his personal life. | 46,853 |
0 | Face it. This is a boring book. | It was written by Joseph Smith and is not more interesting to read than the Book of Mormon. This thing, in part, was written so Joseph Smith could justify polygamy.If Brigham Young had not taken the Mormons to the West, to cut them off from the rest of the world, this book wouldn't even be on Amazon today.For history buffs, this book is pure fantasy. Joseph Smith claimed this is an ancient record of Abraham(along with a rewritten Genesis). However, Smith did not count on the fact that the original document would still be around and we would be able to translate it. The document survived and is in fact not an ancient record of Abraham and varying account of Genesis. The original document is nothing more than an Egyptian funerary text. | 21,884 |
0 | Soft-core java for weekend programmers | Don't believe the cover. This book is not useful for professional programmers. I hadn't really used Java since JDK 1.02, and thought this book could get me up to speed. Now it just collects dust and occassionally gets further defaced when I'm feeling spiteful.It probably would be good for somebody learning Java from Visual Basic -- it includes lots of VB-specific notes. But if you already know anything about Java or OO you will find this book very slow and hard to use. It makes a terrible reference as its description of both the language and the libraries are far from complete, hoping that you can infer the general ideas from their simple over-explained examples. Serious programmers will be bored or even insulted by the windy, condescending prose.Keep looking. There's got to be better out there. I wish I had. | 39,604 |
0 | not worth it... | I bought this originally to do cabinet installation and it didnt work out as planned. It has too small of a footprint (it's too short) and gets out of level by the smallest of irregularities on any given surface. Well specifically kitchen cabinets. I ended up going home to grab my 6 foot level.Another nitpick with it is the switch. You rotate the switch to turn it on and rotate it to turn it back off. It will easily turn itself back in if jostled inside a tool bag.However our dog just loves chasing the laser beam around the house so I'll probably keep this toy, hence the two stars. | 26,761 |
0 | Don't waste your money! | You would think that being a Timex the thing would keep accurate time! Wrong! This item is very confusing to use and hard to set up. I bought 4 of them to use while on vacation and was very disappointed. | 27,707 |
1 | Es muy fantastico! | Fenix Tx used to be a blink 182-sound alike band, but this album completely changed that. This cd es muy excelante! I haven't been able to quit listening to it since May 22nd. I love how they're harder on tracks now, while still being able to chill out on stuff like El Borracho (means the drunkard). I've been recommending this to everyone I can, and so I'm recommending this to you as well. Buy it, it freaking rocks! | 13,086 |
1 | Great children's book | My son (age five) saw this book highlighted on Reading Rainbow and was so taken with the story that I purchased it for him. We've read this book over and over. He loves it. | 11,640 |
0 | Far from objective | This author clearly had an axe to grind with Rudy. Here is the premise in a nutshell: Newfield disagrees with Rudy's politics and therefore dismisses anything Rudy has done. Wow, that's worth your time. You are better off reading the Wikipedia bio than this book. | 36,911 |
1 | Somewhere a place for her | Natalie Wood was my favorite actress. Yet in her later films it was obvious that her acting was as wooden as her invented name.And as we learn in this fascinating biography, Natalie Wood herself did not really exist but was an invention of a devious and extrememy peculiar mother. Suzanne Finstead has written that rare celebrity biography. The reader comes to know Natasha/Natalie in a variey of ways that are always illuminating.The story reads like a suspenseful, almost gothic novel wherein a waiflike beauty is about to fall into the dark abyss at every turn. Those of us who admired her must sit by helplessly as this beautiful, tortured soul drowns a little bit every day. | 6,932 |
1 | Great information tool | Quick to install, the display has everything you need without having to take your hands off the handle bar - you even get the tempature! Highly recommend this product. | 35,617 |
1 | Italian-American Beauty | No need for me to add any more to the glorious reviews below...read on and you will see that The Sopranos is simply the best. A word to the reviewer who thinks The Soprano paints a negative portrait of the Italian-Americans - you're wrong. Every culture has its own negative/evil side. The Sopranos does the best job showing the Italian-Americans from every walk of life....better than The Godfather, Goodfellas, and even Moonstruck. Look at that psychiatrist Dr. Melfi and her family. But that is NOT the point of the show. The point of the show is "the American Dream Goes Bad"..take a look at last years American Beauty. The Sopranos and American Beauty share a lot of themes. | 47,023 |
0 | Buyer Beware | Avoid this company like the plaque. You need to plan on spending $200 every 3 to 4 years for repairs. As another reviewer stated their warranty is terrible. Parts are expensive and their shipping is riiculous. I have had to same part fail me twice and had a customer service rep admit that they had a manufacture problem with some of those parts, but still insisted I pay $117 dollars for parts and $75 dollars shipping overnight. And the worst part is the part wasn't shipped overnight. Said there was some confusion, but still demanded I pay $75 dollars shipping. Again do not buy from this company they will not stand behind their product. | 32,680 |
0 | Tries to be too much | While I love time travel movies, I found Looper to be unfocused and trying to be too much. As if time travel is not enough, for some reason it goes the direction of Heroes, which loses focus on the main topic. Character development is marginal so I found myself not caring too much about what happens in the end.Best time travel movie ever: Primer (2004). [...] | 21,220 |
1 | Texas is Purpose Driven | Our samll study group went through it thoroughly and what a great tool to dig deeper into one's self purpose ... to draw clower to God. Great book! | 15,548 |
0 | Disappointed | I have had my Schwin 418 Eliptical for 6 months. I am 165lbs and use it 3 times a week for 30min. It was squeaky around the foot pads. I had tightened all the screws and used WD-40 to see if it would work. The squeakiness had decreased a little but not much. I noticed that the eliptical had a slight wobble to it as I moved with the foot pads back and forth. I thought no problem the machine still works and I can get my work out even with the noise and slight wobble. At 3 months I tried to increase the resistance level to 14 and the whole front wheel makes a harsh grating noise and locks up. At 3 months I also noticed a consistent thumb as the front wheel would turn about while using the machine. I suspected the machine was not of good quality but today confirmed my suspicion. A bolt broke off that linked the foot pad structure with the right hand upright structure. I chose Schwinn for their quality but am very disappointed. | 29,958 |
1 | Great table for bigger kids | I am so happy with this table. My kids range in age from 20 months to 8 years old and I really didn't think I would find something that the "big" kids could use. This table is fantastic for all the kids!As far as assembly is concerned, it does take awhile to assemble, but it wasn't hard. It seems very solid too. | 14,551 |
1 | Some errors, missing some points, overall allowed me to pass | I took the new 2001 exams today and passed them both (690 Core, 791 OS). Unfortunately there were some serious errors in this book (like the viewable size of a monitor is not the glass!), but overall very good. I should note that the quiz program that comes with the book is also poor and doesn't really prep you for the real exam because the real 2001 exam is 70 questions and 1.5 hours. Also, a note about the hardware exam: I should have done much better but the new 2001 exams have graphics that are impossible to decipher (like identify the *blank* in this graphic). Even if you got 92%+ in practice exams (like I did), study more because you're doomed on these questions. Aside from that, I would recommend this book, as all I did was spend about 30 hours reading the book and about an hour or so before each exam going over what I highlighted! | 14,267 |
1 | Looks great on my patio | What a pleasure to put together!! It took me 1hr. to assemble.All the parts were there, and I diden't need assistance. Just leaned it against the wrought iron rail of the patio and presto!! I was enjoing a fire in no time!! | 16,674 |
0 | Very Disappointing | First of all, what they neglect to tell you is that they haven't incorporated a feature to migrate your license for protected content. So if you've copied your albums with the Window's standard feature of "Copy Protect" you cannot play them on the iRiver. Further, this means that music downloaded and paid for legitimately, which also has content protection, will be unable to play on this device. Finally, the menu system and controls are needlessly confusing and inefficient. I advise that you keep shopping. | 45,176 |

1 | Spiritually chilling! | If you have not checked out the movie, GO! This book was exciting to me to see a nice combination of history and supernatural. I was stunned and informed all at the same time. Toni Morrison is in the ranks of Ntozake Shange. I have not read any other author, who has kept my attention as well as amaze me with some good ol' truth. I think for too long writer's have focused on a conventional tales that are beginning to bore. Morrison is definately not boring in any area. If this is your first time reading Morrison get ready to be glued to the book and take time to read more of her books. This book will definitely be etched in your brain when you finish. It will also put your brain into motion. | 25,796 |
0 | Terrible rendering of a great story | I am one of those people who strongly suspects Bill Gates of being the anti-christ. As such, I looked forward to reading The Microsoft File with almost obscene glee.What a disappointment! This book is so poorly organized and so badly written that I barely got through it at all. The author fails to explain critically important events and concepts in depth, yet wastes pages and my patience on minor and insignificant details. Worse yet, she places no particular emphasis on either, so attempting to separate the meat from the bone is nigh impossible. The strongest impression the book left me with is that it was written under an all too short deadline. The story suffers from a lack of organization and structure; as a result I'm still waiting for the definitive anti-Microsoft book. | 48,361 |
0 | shameful | The trailer is misleading featuring good rock music, a quick pace and clean language. The actual movie is not funny, full of nasty language, and moves at a snail's pace. It was so offensive I did not notice the music. Nick Nolte's character is colorful and amusing, but his performance does not carry this awful movie out of the one star zone. | 31,423 |
0 | Not as much as I had hoped for | I'm facinated by business and marrying the Kingdom of God to the topic of business really captured my attention. I couldn't wait to read the book. Each chapter was dissapointing with few, new thoughts. I think college students and those new to business may find this useful but those who have already spent much time in business or considering how business and the glory of God go together may not find much new to chew on here. I believe the author is a professor and not a businessman--which may be why he didn't deliver as much as I had hoped. | 15,131 |
