1 | tough problems => good for the student | The motivation of explaining Fermat's Last Theorem is a nice device by which Stewart takes you on a tour of algebraic number theory. Things like rings of integers, Abelian groups, Minkowski's Theorem and Kummer's Theorem arise fluidly and naturally out of the presentation.The inclusion of problem sets in each chapter also enlivens its appeal to a student. Typically, the first problems in each set are easy. But later problems can be quite formidable, and really give a good mental workout of the salient issues just covered in the chapter. | 2,724 |
1 | Cute book about friendship and accepting differences. | A friend lent me this book and it brightened my day! What an important idea to share with kids: the idea that we need to accept each other for what we ARE and not what we want the other person to be. This book effectively teaches us about what to look for in a friend. It reminded me a bit of some of the qualities of Marc Brown's "Arthur" books, as well as Kevin Henkes' work. Very enjoyable; great illustrations. | 11,253 |
0 | not what expected | i was expecting a group of naked guys excercising together with a lot of focus on the male pelvic region. the video showed one guy at a time in a nature scene excercising by himself. a little disappointed. | 42,086 |
0 | Data speed slower than I thought | These are EXTREMELY nice to have not only for a console, but if you want link an extra computer to the internet/home network. Very simple to setup, no software or drivers, just plug it in and set it up as if it were a regular ethernet (CAT5) cable. However, don't expect a lot of speed out of these, I was getting 300K max out of them. Fine for online games, but not too great for downloadable content. | 795 |
0 | Not watchable | I couldn't get past about 30 minutes on this one. Just cut my losses and called it a day. If you think Larry the Cable Guy with his catch phrase "get er done" is still funny, you will probably like this movie. It's very much low quality humor, though and really tired. Whereas a movie like Major Payne is good stuff, the writing in this is awful and the acting lazy. I would feel bad for anybody who'd actually buy a DVD of this. | 19,598 |
0 | Mis-leading | Be-aware, of the miss-leading statements in this ad, this product is for the IPod/I phone, but it's for music only, not video. There Ad, if you read it say for watching TV/videos, this is false. It's for music only. | 49,903 |
1 | Like this video | I like this video. I feel like it could have been a little more challenging, but overall I like the movements and exercises. | 9,157 |
0 | NO BENEFITS | I wAS VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THIS PRODUCT. I LIKED THAT IT WAS NOT GREASY, BUT IT DID NOT MOISTURIZE AND DID NOT WORK FOR ME. | 32,552 |
1 | Sweet ideas | This book has lots of little ideas to keep in touch with your child even when you are a busy adult! My son is about to turn 1, and life is about to get hectic with him starting daycare and me going to class full time. I think I will be using some of these rituals very often! | 28,349 |
1 | works great! | All is fine and easy, i only need to see why loading a cd, shows as multiple cd's when playing back.I'd like to load different songs to a folder and load that to play back as a one click deal also.Easy to use and takes a beating as i work in construction. | 47,759 |
0 | Disappointing | As a fan of Ms. Braun's Cat Who books I always look forward to each new chapter. But The Cat Who Went Up A Creek is a far cry from her usual entertaining fare. After 27 episodes featuring the cats, she has finally hit a wall. Without revealing any of the details of the mystery (and there are only a couple)this book relies too heavily on the local characters and Mr. Q's ability to have dinner with each of them. This book spends more time on social events surrounding Moose County than on even pretending there is a mystery. If this series is going to survive (and I hope it does) Ms. Braun needs to relocate Mr. Q and the cats to a different location, Moose County has become stale. | 11,833 |
1 | Staring Sally J. Freedman As Herself | This book was really great the girl reminds me of myself i wish i could have a freind like her I mean the book seems like real life. I think she should write a countinueing book cause i really want to know if it was Hitler in the woods.OK well i geuss thats about it. | 22,758 |
0 | A monumental disappointment | After The Shipping News, I couldn't wait to read Annie Proulx's latest. She had been able to grasp a unique Canadian culture of Newfoundland so well, I expected more of the same or better in Accordian Crimes. This is not a book, just a weak collection of depressing and unsatisfying short stories that do nothing to create empathy with the characters. Not a character here you would want to meet. The theme: the American dream unmasked is a good one. No plot, no unifying idea other than the little green accordian which moves along as each owner dies or loses it. I had to force myself to finish it. If this had been Annie Proulx's first book, no one would buy the next. | 49,722 |
1 | Great story, but... | Goodkind once again shows us that he is a fantastic writer. We were introduced to two (main) new characters, one of which we have been waiting for since #4, TotW, though she was called Lindie. We got another look at Emperor Jagang's side, from yet another view. All in all, it was a wonderful book.I was expecting, however, (...) that Richard, Kahlan, and co. would be the main characters. Richard enters the scene 59 pgs before the end and is only actually on the scene for less that half that. No POVs from Richard, Kahlan, Zedd, Mord Sith, etc.Again, great book, but I hope to get more with our main protagonists in book 8. | 5,909 |
0 | Study with this book - Fail the CVoice exam | If you are looking for a good preparation for taking the CVoice exam, then keep looking. This book has a lot of good info in general, but as a test prep it misses the mark. Just ask me since I studied the crap out of this text and failed miserably on the exam. I guess I'm used to books that help me prepare to actually *pass* exams! For example, MGCP gets about 1 paragraph in this book.. but the exam requires in-depth knowledge of that protocol ...which I now see was indicated on Cisco's test blueprint all this time. Sigh.If you need VoWhatever info, just get articles off the Cisco website, and save your money. | 11,037 |
0 | Not a good cleaner | Point blank This is just way to mild. This stuff would not clean my leather. I went ahead and purchased Concorso Leather Cleanse and was very happy with it! | 37,765 |

0 | What music shouldn't be. | This CD is obviously fabricated and contains no musical talent. It is just one mushy love ballad after another. The only people that I can see liking this music are in the 10-12 year old range. This band doesn't even write their own lyrics. How can anyone think that this music shows emotion, when they're singing something that some stuffy middle aged man wrote in his corner office on the 39th floor of X Records Company HQ? It's sad that record companies sacrifice music in the pursuit of money. Spend your money on something else such as hed(pe) or Incubus (Or, if you like softer music, Lenny Kravitz or someone like that.) At least these people show musical talent. | 37,509 |
1 | Much nicer than expected! | I hesitated a little before ordering this since some people thought the finish wasn't nice or it looked cheap. I couldn't be happier with it. It was easy to put together and looks very classy. | 19,661 |

0 | Dirt Devil 082500 Breeze is not as Advertised! | Length:: 1:06 MinsWatch for yourself.I give this product a 2.5 out of 5 stars.It works a little better if no tools have been attached. However, now you are left with a quarter sized radius of suction. That would only take you all day to clean one room. I highly recommend buying something else. This product is a complete waste of money. | 1,744 |
1 | Deserves 6 Stars! | Dwight's voice is like a knife that tears into my soul with stinging sweetness and his lyrics are mesmerizing. He's a singing storyteller who is in a league of his own. I can hardly articulate what I find most impressive about Dwight, and what appeals to me about this particular album. It's beautifully stark, traditional yet contemporary, the lyrics are honest and descriptive, the production is fine and music first-rate. This album is classic, just like Dwight. Part of the making of a Legend. No wonder Buck Owens and Johnny Cash liked him and thought of him as a worthy successor. He was and still is. I just wonder when he will get the recognition he is due?? | 7,132 |
0 | Worst Female Main charater ever. | Bella takes the qualities about teenage girls that most of us dislike to the extreame. She is so comsumed by Edward that it is crippling, not a role modle for my daughter at all. | 16,119 |
0 | Didn't Get Past the First Ten Minutes | Of the hundreds of movies that I've seen in my 38 years, I've rarely met one where I couldn't make it past the first ten minutes. Men in Black 3 was so utterly gross and stupid that we gave up after about six minutes. | 16,250 |
0 | Will not work on WIndows XP | This game does not work on Windows XP. Warning: do not buy unless you computer is 5+ years old running windows 98. | 18,317 |
0 | Weak | Desborough's CF book features what all developers look for in computer books - oodles of sample code. Unfortunately, the applications contained in the book are poorly documented and somewhat misleading -- some of them contain CF 1.5 syntax (the product is now in rev 3.0).Of course, I could forgive this shortcoming if the samples were sufficiently complex as to demonstrate new techniques and intriguing user interfaces. The book fails here too, however, as most of the examples do not even use frames, although a few do demonstrate use of Style Sheets.A programmer just starting out with CF may consider purchasing this book as a companion to the Cold Fusion Web Database Construction Kit by Ben Forta, et al., however, experienced CF developers will find it a disappointment.Steve DruckerCo-Author, The CF Web Database Construction Ki | 38,598 |
1 | ! | This dvd is a great portrait of the fabulous alfred brendel. When I bought it, I must confess I didn't really know much about his life and career, but after watching this dvd, I was absolutely amazed with his capability of building phrases. His has a perfect balance between the emotion and the technical, and as a person, absolutely quirky!I can only say that I am now a new Brendel fan and I can watch this film over and over again. | 8,477 |
1 | like it! | I really like my Chopstir. I like my ground beef to be very small pieces and this does the job so much quicker than trying to get it small with my wooden spoon. I used it once and the next day bought one for my daughter. She even called while she was using it to say how much she liked it. | 17,335 |
0 | Meh | The preview looks much better than the movie itself. Sort of depressing and definitely hard to root for anyone here. In short, rent something else. | 29,237 |
1 | INFINITE POSSIBILITIES by Mike Dooley | INFINITE POSSIBILITIES is one of the most fascinating books that I have read because it has had such an impact on my thinking. I found it wonderful because it reminds me how powerful we are and that we can truly make the world a more beautiful place. | 27,072 |
1 | The best sports bra for the larger sized runner | I have gotten 5 of these sports bras and love them all. I finally went a size up to (C-D) to criss cross the straps in the back (adjustable velco on front of bra straps) so I can wear them also with my racer back running shirts and this makes the fit very snug but comfortable. I have chafed a little on the longer runs (5-10 miles) under the lower bra band in the front when I criss cross the straps in the back but apply a little sports glide on my skin before the run and problem solved! The Fiona Sports Bra in my opinion is one of the best made support sports bras on the market that is both comfortable and well constructed to last. Almost a complete no bounce bra with soft and wide straps that don't dig in or pinch and moisture whisking is excellent even on long runs! | 43,576 |
0 | Won't work on Windows XP | Wish I had paid more attention and saw that it is only for Win 98/ME When so many are going to XP you would thing they would make this run on XP. Boy is my daughter disappointed and I will not go back to Win 98. I have an old computer with 98 on it but it is only 400 Mhz. From what I read it may not play on that very well. | 33,053 |
1 | A Good Novel! | This was quite an interesting book. The U.S. government decides to create an agency to battle imported drugs from Colombia.The name of this unit is "Hammerheads". Of course you have a favorite Dale Brown hero Ian Hardcastle. The drug lords have hired a Cuban general to lead their smuggling effort. There is plenty of high flying action in this book. The new unit is tried again and again. The drug lords through their Cuban general prove to be a worthy advesary. The state of Florida is under the gun in this book. If you like jets and airplanes this is your book. Buy it, it is a good read. | 12,831 |
0 | Not country | She's terrible live, album isn't worth the money. Plus she's not country, so it's annoying how she's classified as country. She's about as country as Kelly Clarkson only WAY less talented. Kelly can at least sing. | 21,589 |
1 | A good introductory descritpion of Santeria in New York | Dr. Murphy writes a good story. The book is a description of his personal experience in Santeria. It should be noted that he is not an initiate, but he writes in a sympathetic, informed and respectful way about the religion. Even though he is an academic, this book is written in a non-academic style. If you are curious about santeria it is a must read. | 8,979 |
0 | Not quite what I expected | I was looking for informative and folkloric style but this description fit only a small few first pages of the book. A big part of the book is dedicated for the "open your heart and see the magical world around you" kind of faeries. Example would be the fairy of pure joy or the slippery fairy that make it "slippery". The bad fairy section of the book is heavily centered around this theme. Rather than dedicated to trolls, ogres, and goblins, it is full of personifications of negative things possibly invented by the author himself and I don't like that.Overall, it's a bad book if you are like me, seeking for information and nothing else and it would be a good book if you are the kind of person who is romantic or like to tune with nature and see things within. | 42,114 |
1 | Dragons, & a Mystical God with fancy armor. Nicely done. | Not much more to say except, dont rent the 1st 2 if you cant get a hold of the 3rd. It leaves you in agony. I should know. | 41,599 |
1 | Quick, fun, and I will definitely be reading the sequel when my library gets it. | Why I read ItThe Title! The young adult (teen) section of my library is around the music CD's. So as I was checking out the latest arrivals I saw this book on the shelf in a prominent outfacing display. I love Goth Girls (think back to Winona Ryder in Bettlejuice) so I had to pick it up.What I Thought About ItQuick, fun, and I will definitely be reading the sequel when my library gets it. Two loners find each other and just maybe they can get through the High School experience. Not a banned book but I wouldn't be surprised if it ended up there one day.

0 | Very disappointed | This toaster was a piece of junk. Controls did not function properly and toast burned. Bagel function did not work nor did the cancel function. Very disappointed in Cuisinart for producing such a low quality product. Would not recommend. | 34,613 |
1 | Good Product | Got this one for an aged aunt who came home following rehab for a broken hip. It arrived on time as promised. Easy to assemble, sturdy, light enough to move from bedroom to bath to be used as an over-the-toilet adaptation. I am an OT who recommends these types of products for many patients. Will not hesitate to recommend this one. Price is very good, compared to local home health models at upwards of 170.00. | 22,596 |
1 | 16 inch kickstand fits Kettler 16" Bingo OK | I was very impressed with the sturdiness.And it came with an optional fitting to enable an alternative mounting. In my case it fit robustly either way.The 16 inch kickstand was a little shorter than ideal for the Kettler 16" Bingo. It works OK on concrete or in our shed, but I suspect it wouldn't be satisfactory on a soft surface like dirt.The foot design doesn't permit one to buy a larger size and cut it to optimum length. That's the only reason I don't give it 5 stars.The instructions suggested greasing it after installation, but no grease was supplied; not a problem for me, but your mileage may vary. | 18,744 |
1 | Great Movie | I really love this movie and the seller sent it to me in a timely fashion and in better condition than stated. I would most definitely do business with this seller again. | 5,785 |
0 | Duplicate Product | I ordered this and Behind the Wheel Spanish for my husband for Christmas. Imagine our surprise when we found out that these two items are IDENTICAL, except for the titles. Even though the prices are different! Conversational Spanish even costs more, leading you to believe the products are different. So be careful. And while the lessons are useful, the format is the same as those of taped lessons - all they did was copy the tapes to CD's, so the instructions to rewind and play the sentance again don't work. Also, there are long silences where the tapes wind to the end. | 44,316 |
0 | Not A Gerber DO NOT BUY! | I am so upset about this. They clearly are lying to get you purchase this item do not be fooled this is not a Gerber at all. I bought this for a graduation gift and frankly I am mad. Now I have to give a subpar gift to someone b/c I don't have enough time to get the real thing here in time. Gerber is a brand name and I am surprised Amazon has let this go on. | 18,813 |
1 | Great read! | Books are highly subjective, but I have always liked John's books. Be aware of all the pompous critics out there who claim that John is 'aloof' or not quite 'in touch'. I know that God has used his writing in wonderful ways for myself, and MANY that I know. And that should be testament to itself. Always check everything that you read against or compared to the Scriptures, but read his book for yourself before deciding to take the 'advice' of the raters! | 20,340 |
1 | Excellent; high quality as advertised | Very happy with this p urch asked. High quality wood, advertised exactly as isGood purchase! Would definitely buy again, great deal for the money | 6,222 |
1 | An excellent refresher for a busy family | We checked this out from our local library and LOVED it. It was so helpful in the preparations for our 2nd child. We decided to buy it for the 3rd. We found it so helpful and useful we wouldn't prepare for childbirth without it. It is somewhat outdated in some areas of labor and delivery, but the content of explaining how to breath through and relax during contractions is timeless. A must if you need a refresher on a childbirth class. This helped me go through an epidural free labor and very smooth delivery of #2. | 21,554 |

1 | Art and Illusion review by artist/filmmaker | Art & Illusion is an altogether brilliant text - one of the most profound discussions of fine art in the 20th century. No matter what one's field - whether painting, film, new media, performance art - it is a book both timeless and essential. | 27,717 |
1 | garden state of mind | I will see said movie three more times this week, and then i will stand looking over an empty earth-crater in the pouring rain wearing a garbage bag with 'only living boy in new york' turning over in my psyche, and i will just scream aloud from the lungs and throat and heart and head ... for everyone who needs it. a fierce, cleansing high decibel release - i promise. then i will drive home with squeaky acoustic thrums, lyrical profundity, and folktronic comfort rhythm in my cerebrum ... thoroughly 'in it' by choice, and i wouldn't have it any other numb or easy way.cuz blue eyes, you're the secret I keep ... and I just wanna sing a song with you.the soundtrack is such a perfectly intelligent, straight from the heart gift to an already amazing piece of celluloid. I couldn't think of a better way to weave evocative music into this film's delicate emotional fabric. | 7,344 |
0 | Shattered and poorly packaged | The dishes came in a terribly thin cardboard box that only had "Heavy items" written on the outside in small print. No signs saying "Fragile" or "Handle W/Care"...which might have helped since I received a box full of shattered dishes. Not just broken in a few places, quite literally shattered and in millions of pieces. In my opinion, the packaging was not nearly sufficient enough to protect all the pieces of the set, which is a shame since from what I could tell from the pieces, the dishes looked ok. Amazon customer service was a nightmare to deal with as well, maybe it was just the holidays, but their staff seemed either uncaring or frankly, didn't seem to understand English very well and read off a script to poorly answer my questions. | 35,704 |
1 | What is human? | I read 'Heart of Darkness' late in life and remember thinking -'what a powerful story'- as I was turning the third page. As I turned the fourth page, I realized that 'Apocalype Now' was taken from it, if not word for word, then tought for thought. Nevertheless, the power of Conrads imagery is so overwhelming, that I found myself holding my hand over my beating heart, while imagining myself on that river steamer, making my way into the heart of Africa, into a world where men existed without knowledge of any life outside there own villages. I immediately went out and purchased his other titles before I'd finished 'Heart Of Darkness', just so that I would not be without them, should I suddenly finish the one that I was reading, and wish to go immediately to the next. If you wonder about the boundaries of human experience, this book will not disappoint!H | 1,323 |
0 | Not worth it. | I still don't know why this book has such a good rating...It was much worse than the 8th book yet people seem to like it more. I have to say, you really only need to read the last 100 pages or so if you are a WoT fan. The rest is junk. I don't criticize books very often. I understand that the author has to make a living. But sheesh...Jordan sure is making a living at the expense of those who have grown to love his series. Hopefully, he'll write some better stuff in the future... | 15,458 |
1 | great book | This book describe how to change your thinking or views on situation that most people are not raise with. This book has help me to stop and think and make changes about myself. Which has helped with how I react in my marriage. I am reading it over just to keep the advise in my thoughts so I don't go back to my old habits of thinking. | 1,048 |
1 | It's a big world! | Beautiful book that helps to understand how kids from other places live and what their lives are like. The pictures are stunning and the text is interesting. | 20,234 |
0 | Microsoft Group Policy book | Leave it to MS-press to take two well known Group Policy guys, Dereck and Darren and basically make a book that bores you to death. The whole book seems not to have any real "flow." It just rambles from here to there, putting out information which might be useful, if only there were some order to it. If you're looking for a better guide on Group Policies, Jeremy Moskowitz's book, "Group Policy, Profiles and Intellimirror" is a better bet. It's shorter, more consise and has a unified "flow" which can't be beat.In short, if you're crazy for MS-press books, go ahead and get this one. Else, save your money and go for the title from Moskowitz instead. | 27,214 |
1 | A fun little hatchet / tomahawk | It's a fairly heavy weapon for the size and cool to look at. It's not very functional as far as chopping any wood but for throwing I'm sure it would be fun. | 49,765 |

1 | Love the Kindle 2 | Love the Kindle 2 so far. Everything from the easy fast downloads without a Wi-Fi having to be available, to long lasting battery life. I can get a whole week out of it easy after I turn the wireless off. I can read the screen fine in the daylight. I love the book mark option so I can come back to the exact spot where I left off (just like a dog ear on a real book). The only thing that would make this a COMPLETE package would be if they could figure out a way to read it in low light without having to use an external light source. Other than that, LOVE IT! | 37,558 |
1 | Bart Erhman's book good, but has its own problems | Bart Errman carefully and in precise academic thoroughness exposes as false the historical claims made in Dan Brown's excellent mystery thriller. The one drawback in Bart Erhman's argument are his own biases about the reliability and dating of many of the New Testament documents, for example the Pastoral epistles, 2 Peter and the Gospel of John. He also resorts to a dan brown type of statements such as "Scholars now agree that . . ." But many reputable New Testament scholars don't agree with the doubts Bart Ehrman has about the NT sources. Anyone wanting a more reliable guide to the authenticity of the NT documents could do no better than read the late F F Bruce's little book "The New Testament Documents Are They Reliable?" | 15,395 |

0 | A Twisted View of Reality | There is no myth in Cooperative Mondragon if you have lived in Mondragon in 1960's, if you grow thru an artificially induced process of 40% unemployement, and sharing day to strugle of been lucky to get minimum wage and abuses of dictatorship under industrialism of General Franco.The priests who funded the Cooperative (today with 60,000 employee owners) althought no perfect found a better solution.Mondragon is perfect in front of the Enrons, MCIs, not a single person in the cooperative is yet to lose a pension or health coverage, or security of live, that beats 99% what Kasmir tries to compare Mondragon against other forms of ownership. | 10,961 |
0 | STAY AWAY! | This mirror is so bad, it's not even a real mirror, it's a plastic mirror, that can make your face shape changes depending on the angle you lift your mirror! It's so cheap and is distorted when you lift it away of your face. Don't buy! | 35,070 |
0 | The "Red" Ring | This ring looks red, but it is not. It also looks like a solid color, again it is not. My ring in orange and transparent. I wanted this to match a red outfit, now I have a useless orange translucent ring. | 49,345 |
1 | Ouch! | This game rocks!!!!!!!! You can have a mortar, rifle, autorifle, grenade, flamethrower, tank, or jeep. Sarge really talks. "Ahhhhh a bazzoka!" "Grenades, these'll come in handy." "Outstanding job sarge! Please stand by for further information. HQ out!! | 30,189 |
1 | An excellent text for both the instructor and student. | His concepts of conflict and theatricality are excellent. Goal, Obstacle, Tactic and Expectation (GOTE)lead to a complete understanding of the actor's craft. For the beginner, this concept is absolutly necessary; the young actor now has a deep understanding of what makes an action theatrical and interesting. Through Cohen's work,the actor can understand and apply Stanislvaski's "beats." | 4,428 |
0 | Uncomfortable | I returned it because the seat is uncomfortable dont get mislead by the "Comfort" in the title. Spend a little more and get a better seat it does make the most contact with you when you are on your bike besides the handle bar grips. | 31,459 |
0 | garbage. Lasted 2 years then died. | Stunned to find amazon still selling these. I bought these in 2008 and by 2010 they were dead. Both handsets quit within a month of each other. $60 (they were $78 in 2008) cordless phones should last longer than two years. Maybe I am just naive.These phones take AAA rechargeables. I thought the batteries had just gone bad. So I spent 15 bucks on good quality replacements. No luck. | 40,732 |
0 | Unnecessary. | Even Tho I am a big, big Boz Scaggs fan, I have to say this collection is a waste of money. It's the repetition of the Original Hits! compilation, released in 1980, without "You Can Have Me Anytime" and adding "Heart Of Mine" and "Hard Times." Boz deserves better and no wonder he left Sony music if they're gonna treat his material this way. Go for the masterpieces: "My Time: Anthology 1969-1997," and his albums "Silk Degrees," "Slow Dancer" and, of course, his debut album. Collections like this one are just filler. | 2,552 |
1 | Any movie with COLIN FIRTH in it is GREAT!! | Colin Firth acted every-well in it as usual. Though I had a hard conceiving whether Colin and Hart were going to fall in love. I like the movie because there was alot of supense, that had me sitting at the end of my chair. A GREAT MOVIE!! | 823 |

1 | The Tao of Chuang Tzy | I have read this book over and over, as I have The Tao,I learn new ways of looking at life every time as well asfeeling a greater understanding of parts of the Tao that Iwould have not had without these musings.I recommend it to anyone who is seeking greater awarenessof the path to a joy filled life. | 45,264 |
0 | New and Improved? No Way. | We first had the original diaper champ, which I would have given 4 stars. It kept the odor in pretty well, was easy to use, used regular trash bags...etc. We really liked it until one day a velcro tab on a diaper pulled the foam out of the lid. Since it was letting the odor out, we decided to replace it with the new and improved model. WORST DIAPER PAIL EVER. As soon as the diapers start piling up, the lid grabs tabs, wipes, etc and jams the top so you can't flip it. I spent so much time shaking, wiggling and kicking the thing I was very quickly exasperated. When you flip the top, it created much bigger gaps on the two sides than the older model. This is why things get jammed...also why it lets a huge waft of diaper odor out every time you flip it. HORRIBLE. | 17,597 |
0 | Poor Fidelity | Okay, I have hundreds of CDs and all of TJT's albums, but the fidelity is so bad on this effort that it is totally distracting! One reviewer likened "Deadbeat Sweetheartbeat" to a live concert - and that's what it sounds like! It's a shame because the writing is strong but the vocals are drowned out and there's little-to-no separation in the sound. Occasionally a poorly mixed album shows up on the radar (see OLP's latest album) but this is so bad it detracts from the overall integrity. Very disappointing! | 3,094 |
1 | AWESOME MICROWAVE | This is a fantastic microwave. Lots of room. Cooks food great. The sensor reheat function is awesome. Also, the defrost is great too! | 11,756 |
1 | 4 speakers doesn't equal 4-D | But it's still a good album anyway. Everybody makes a big deal about how hard it is to set up and how it's impossible to start the CDs at the same time blah blah blah. I've got 4 speakers for my computer so I used winamp and this KB 1.5 plugin and it was really simple to set it up so each CD played out of a different speaker. The point is it's really quite doable all by yourself so don't listen to people who whine about setup. Other than that I'd say it's a 4 star album but the 4 speaker effect is pretty novel and fun so that makes it 5. | 43,961 |
0 | Sell Out To Jocks | This book is a total sell out, this is what we were taught at college. Poorly written and dated. Their cocky attitude made them the butt of many jock jokes. So here is a cult that had sold out. The death metal genre is tired- most of these people are on Welfare. There is no such thing as the middle class anymore- you're either a millionare or you're broke. This is a very bad book about a tired subject. | 15,518 |
0 | Ummmm.... | After reading all the great reviews I was so excited to get the cream! Well, it did not live up to expectations..AT ALL!!! If you have sensitive skin, dont even try it! Within a week my face was so read and started breaking out! It is also not good to wear under makeup b/c it doesnt absorb well. I am now trying Murad and I hope it works! | 33,088 |
0 | true to it's name | This stuff [is bad]!As far as I'm concerned fm STATIC is true to it's name. I can't believe members from TFK would do such a thing this is the worst cd that I've ever heard!!!!! Do not buy this cd.The only song that might even qualify as decent is the first track (three day's later[i kinda like this song]) and that isn't even very good considering that it features members from the always original band TFK (I'm thier biggest fan) I'm disgusted that they would actually put thier names on this.I went to see them on the Kutless tour and they were even worse there than on the cd like I said (especially TFK fans) DO NOT BUY THIS CD[!] | 39,597 |
0 | Too small! | I think this might be good for a small person, or a child. The keys are too small and close together. I'm always hitting two keys at the same time, and have to go back and delete. I'm noticing my hand is cramping from use, I never used to have that problem. Like others have said, some of the keys are in positions other than the positions that most keyboards use. I guess you would get used to it after a while, but it's annoying at this point. | 18,695 |
1 | The Hemingway Classics Collection (The Sun Also Rises / A Farewell to Arms / The Snows of Kilimanjaro / Under My Skin / Adventur | WOW!!! ALL THESE GREAT MOVIES IN ONE PURCHASE BOX! THIS IS A BARGAIN! | 32,470 |
1 | A Funny Movie | Zombieland is good movie. It incorporates action with some laughs. This is a movie you can watch more than one time and want to watch more than one time. A good movie for a good deal. | 43,951 |
0 | Painful to watch | This film, made in 1934, was painful to watch. The story and script are very simple, with akward and over-the-top acting by most. The script included long, drawn out and very corny speeches by Will Rogers. But that's to be expected, since this film was made during the relatively early years of cinema. And the film quality isn't very good-the picture is very grainy. I also expected that the images and portrayals of African-Americans would be archaic and probably offensive. But I love movies for their historical value too. However, this film's treatment of Black characters is so racist and demeaning that I couldn't see anything else. I will only keep this in my collection as an example of cinema at its most mediocre. | 4,612 |
1 | Alden Nowlen is amazing | Having lived in New Brunswick all of my life I find that Alden Nowlen's poetry is spectacular and the imagery he uses is very well known to me. He has very insightful, but honest and earthy poetry that people who have grown up in the maratimes may especially enjoy. I call him poetry without any pretension. | 27,968 |
0 | Collar Has Only Sprayed Once | My dog has had the collar on for the past several days. While he has barked numerous times, the collar has nly sprayed once. Prior to purchasing the Premier Gentle Spray collar, I used the Multivet Deluxe collar. I don't think it performed all that well either, but it did spray about 50% of the time when my dog barked and so it definitely worked better than the Premier one has so far. I will say that the Premier collar has been easier to fill and turn on/off than the Multivet one. | 23,022 |
0 | the real highlight is the SOundtrack | this is film overall has nothing on the orginal.a few things about it are alright but the Music is the Real Diamond.Donny Hathaway&Quincy Jones on the Soundtrack is a must.THe Main Actors are cool but this Film doesn't really go anywhere.the First one is a Classic. | 28,863 |
1 | I'm digging this series | I'm mostly a paranormal fan, but I picked this book up from my sister's shelf because I was bored one day. I spent a few lazy hours reading this on the couch and it was a quick read because of how engrossed I was reading it. I've not read the first book, so I guess I'll have to go back and read that one now too! | 18,674 |
0 | controls were annoying | Going left to right was not happening with me. Maybe I'm missing something, but trying to turn and move around was a bit clumsy. So clumsy that I lost interest in the game really fast. | 3,286 |
0 | Hmmm....is it me?? | I've been using this cream for about 7 months now. I switched from an Avon Anew product because I saw reviews of this one and they seemed to be great. Everyone seems to be happy with it but I can only say 2 good things about it: it smells good and it has a nice texture to it. Now to the negative things. I put this on in the morning and by the middle of the day my skin is dry. It feels awful. It also looks awful. I have no glow like I used to and it makes my skin ashy. It does nothing for wrinkles, although, what does? It has not evened out my skin tone or done anything for dark spots/blemishes. I don't know why it has worked so well for other people. I'm about 33yrs old and after this last bottle is done, I will be finished with this product. At least Avon kept my skin moisturized all day. I hope this works for other people, I just have had no luck with it. | 7,708 |
1 | Angel: Season 5 | I thought they ended too soon but if it all had to end ,why not go out in a blaze of glory | 37,101 |
0 | Overrated | Wow. This is one the most overrated books in history. If you are CS student, prepare for your doom! Everytime I tried to read a page, I look back and wonder "What did I just read?" One will need an EE background just to begin to comprehend the stuff in this book. The examples were so bad that I would have to look online just to see a good example. The author presents the material in such a boring format that I wanted to go to sleep everytime I read a page. | 12,955 |
1 | Great! | Thought this would be a good buy based on the other reviews and now that we've had it for a couple of weeks... I could not agree more!! The graphics are a little antiquated for today's standards but it gets the job done. The characters are interesting and it grabs my 2 and 3 year old's attention the second the intro song (where the plane flys by upside down) comes on. My 3 year old started spelling her name after watching this a couple of times! | 19,057 |
1 | Working great for last 9 months | I bought this product 9 months ago from CompUSA with the cheapest price. And I am using this drive not only storing huge data files but I use this drive for hours of Video Processing. Sometimes non stop for 4-5 weeks. And so far working fine. But after reading all the recent reviews I am afraid that either the drive may fail or I will loose all my data. So probably I will buy another drive soon for backing up this drive as well as I don't have much space left. So far I am very happy with this product | 33,405 |
1 | Queen: The New Visual Documentary | Although I already had 4 books on Queen and Freddie Mercury, I am so glad I purchased this book.It is a beautifully written and illustrated book, brimming with information, and chronologically accurate. Buy it!You won't be disappointed!It has a permanent place on my coffee table along with " Queen the Ultimate Illustrated History of the CrownKings of Rock and Roll" by Phil Sutcliffee. | 46,444 |
1 | Best mortgage calculator out there! | This is the best mortgage calculator out there hands down! Forget the old school HP's. You don't need a degree to figure out how to use this. No long formulas and zillions of keystrokes. You only need 3 factors and you can hit the button to get the 4th one quickly. Would highly recommend this product over the other mortgage calculators out there. | 30,637 |
0 | not a good tip | We purchased red, blue, black & white tips of this style. The blue ones broke more rapidly than the other colors. The reds & whites of this style were fine, but the black tips lastest longest. | 19,298 |
0 | Intellectual puffery? | The questions need to be asked, true. Our society's fetishization of technological progress and free markets need to be challenged, and that is the best role for the Krokers and similar critics: poking the hornets nest and seeing who gets stung.But there is bigger question when studying Data Trash, Hacking the Future and the Krokers' other techno-dystopian tomes: does all this jargon and rhetoric actually add up to anything? The Krokers are great at stirring the pot, but seem to have some fundamental misconceptions about the nature of technology and how, in a practical sense, it is accepted or rejected by people. | 533 |
0 | Horrible Kindle Version | This review is solely for the Kindle version of Executive Orders.This is one of my favorite Clancy novels. I re-read it every few years. I re-purchased it for the Kindle and must say that this is the most horrible conversion to Kindle I have seen to date. It's like they just opened up the source file, did a SAVE-AS and picked Kindle format and went to market with it. It is so full of typos and errors that it looks like it was OCRed. I will be re-reading my hardback rather than the Kindle version. | 20,082 |
