| "I used this pole on a hiking trip in the Sipsey Wilderness of North Alabama. The pole was used while hiking about 12 miles.The quality of the pole itself is very very good. The length adjustments don't slip like cheaper poles. The anti-shock function works, but seems completely unnecessary.The handle, though, is flimsy. The foam only surrounds the pole and does not go over the top to hold it in place. Additionally it is not adhered to the pole, so it slips down the pole if you happen to mis-step and pull down on the handle very hard. Also, the top camera mount pulled out. It is simply a ~1.5cm plug that is pressed into the top of the hollow pole. I'd hate to be the guy who loses his camera while filming over a ledge because the ""cap"", that is the camera mount, fell out.Overall I wouldn't recommend this pole to anyone. There are other poles exactly like this one with better handles for around the same price.",0 | |
| "This was a very disappointing CD. I was excited to get a ""recommended"" CD coupled along with another I had purchased. Unfortunately this is a collection of poorly produced and poorly performed music by a local church choir. Whlie there is certainly good reason to produce and offer a CD to one's own congregation, this one should never have been marketed nationally. Save your money on this one.",0 | |
| "I had high expectations for this series. They are truly horrible. The production value is amature at best. It looks like it was shot with an old vhs camcorder. The direction/editing looks like it was done on a PC by a teenager. Now for the content - I bought these so that I could help my 7 and 10 year olds with the basic techniques of the strokes and speak the language of swimming that they are learning on their team. I envisioned that this would help improve technique as the title is ""Becoming a faster swimmer..."" This wouldn't even do for beginning swimmers of any age. The examples are bad, the kids in the video are not even performing the exercises properly as shown by the ""Olympian."" I showed these DVDS to some swimmers that have been swimming for over 10 years and they actually laughed. They then pointed out several areas where they pointers/techniques are either wrong or outdated for today's teaching standards. Save your money.",0 | |
| "Twice, I ordered ""Steve Fromholz: Live at Anderson Fair"" on CD, once from another vendor, and once from Amazon. Both times, I received ""timelines"" by Darrel Tidaback. Steve Fromholz is not featured on the CD anywhere. The first vendor refunded my money and told me to keep the CD I received. Amazon sent me a return label and refunded my money. Tonight, I Googled Steve Fromholz again and was directed to Amazon once more. This time, Amazon got the right title (timelines)on their page, but the price has gone from $17 to $99. I don't know how this CD has been confused with Steve Fromholz, but I am not impressed. As information, I wouldn't buy this CD for $17, and I sure wouldn't buy it for $99.",0 | |
| "I had heard so much about this film. ""Its so violent, its so disturbing, blah, blah, blah."" I finally went out and rented it. What a disappointment! The story is good enough: Two girls go the city to see a concert, try buying some pot, and end up being kidnapped by some escaped cons. The girls are eventually killed and the killers end up hiding, unknowingly, at one of the girl's parents' home, where the parents take their revenge. But the camera work is awful, the music is stupid, and the acting is average at best. The two bumbling cops are completely unnecessary and unfunny. I constantly see this film mentioned in the same company as ""Texas Chainsaw Massacre"", which is an insult to TCM. Fred Lincoln, who plays one of the convicts, once said this is the only movie he made that he wished he hadn't, and he went on to make ""adult"" films! Wes Craven went on to make some good films, but this one is lame.",0 | |
| "Bought this to use as a webcam. Piece of junk; images very jaggy, focus is an oxymoron. VERY disappointed with it. As for a standalone digital camera, save your money and get something that isn't made of plastic, has some sort of zoom, and can be focused. Nothing good about this thing.",0 | |
| "This is a great book based on what is most important to men and women in marriage. This is about traditional values of trying to make a marriage work by making your spouse's needs your priority. I would not recommend it for people who are in abusive verbal, emotional or physical relationships. This is for people who have a basically good person they're married to, but it seems that they cannot connect. Awesome book!",1 | |
| "I purchased this ergo mouse because of my painful right index finger due to mouse clicking (trigger finger). Now the clicking is done with my right thumb. Press thumb down for left click, and press thumb up on button for right click. Very simple. When I use it I have no pain in my finger and can tell my finger is slowly getting better.The only complaint I have is that the scroll button is sensitive so I find myself either scrolling too fast or putting too much effort into trying to scroll ""just right."" But I think the scroll mechanism can be adjusted so it's probably just me.It comes in 2 sizes. For most people, the regular size is fine. If you have really big hands you'll want the large size. It also comes in a higher priced model sans the wire.All in all I recommend this product as a viable alternative to the regular mouse.",1 | |
| "First off, if you wonder in what language that song is sang that sounds like redemption song? Douala!!!! Yes that is the language and little by little and bit by bit and indeed little bit by little bit, this central african language from Cameroon, first appeared in Michael Jackson's Thriller in the 80's. It is elbowing its way thru the boulevards of modern jazz , with pioneers like Richard Bona, the African Bazz jazz erudite.Well, this album is well crafted , in every aspect.Yes true Bob purists mAy find that this album lacks that ginger taste from Kingston!! Well, I believe that the flavors had just been substituted with all kinds of other fLavors from around the world, making this twist even SPICIER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!M""BOLO!!!!!!!!!(BYE)",0 | |
| "This book is choppy and repetitive; I found it to be very poorly written. I am a recovering anorexic/bulimic and although her story is intriguing, she has no business being a writer. With so many books available on eating disorders, I advise people to pass on this one. A better choice would be ""Wasted"" by Marya Hornbacher or ""Early Disorder"" by Rebecca Josephs.",0 | |
| "I have met this womans son, and he told me about the book, ihave read it, and passed it along to myfriends,, it is a wonderful book! i laughed at the stories and cried, and i think that Mrs Fagan is a wonderful woman, and a strong woman.",1 | |
| Certainly the finest TV series I've ever watched. It sometimes brought tears almost simultaneously with laughter. The only thing to regret about this tape is that its not a complete DVD collection of Hill Street Blues.,1 | |
| "Prodigal Summer was a book picked by a friend of mine for our book club. We were all really excited as Kingsolver has a strong following and critics seem to love her. Needless to say from my review title I couldn't even finish it - I got to page 200 but with much effort. Her nature writing is nice (although probably boring and not for everyone) but her romance writing is really ""cheesy"" (think Harlequin romance) found in the section titled ""Predators"" - it was almost nauseating. ""Moth love"" was just depressing and the other section which I can't even remember the title of was, well, not very memorable... I was thinking maybe it was just me but several other members of our book club ""hated it"" and only 1 or 2 of the ladies even finished it. I didn't give the book 1 star b/c I admit that maybe I am missing something but this book just left me bored and wishing for more of a plot and better characters.",0 | |
| I swear if not for the infamy of the Sharon Tate killing and the fact that he had sex with 13 year old little girls this guy would be a no name...or at least a forgotten director with a few credits to his name.This film makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.Its hard to choose which of his films is the worse of the lot.Not recommended,0 | |
| "It offers excellent cooling, and the speed adjustment allows for exactly the noise level desired (loud or quiet, depending on how much cooling is needed).Be aware that it is VERY heavy, so be gentle with your motherboard clips. The lever on this HSF is very easily operated.",1 | |

| The best part of the Coach Coz and the Kid Crew is that I can take it with me when I babysit my little cousins. They think THEY are part of his kid crew and it helps when they miss my aunt and uncle when they go out for the night. Coach Coz keeps their attention and he also keeps them moving!!!!!,1 | |
| "A book well written but unfortunately highly biased justifying the russian atrocities. Certainly war is by itself an atrocity, but that do not allows an army to commit barbaric actions against women and children.",0 | |
| "I have done everything HP claims will fix this problem and it still prints one in 3 documents so slow that it is useless. It will take 5 minutes to print a 5 page document. Usually if I delete the print job and restart it the print speed will go. Perhaps it is Leopard or some quirk of my computer. This is the first HP printer I have ever had real problems with.The print quality is good. I can barely tell the difference between fast draft and high quality text only print jobs. The OCR and scanning is so-so. For the price it is OK for pictures and graphics but scanning text is next to impossible. 1 in ten letters seems to be off.This printer seems to run great when I print with my PC so my sense is the problem has to do with working with Macs although someone here claims theirs works great. I am donating it to a non-profit (that uses PCs) and buying a different printer.HP customer service was great as usual, even if they could not fix the problem.",0 | |
| """Why geography matters"" did not deliver according to me. Though it may be very interesting for people not very familiar with geography and how it does matter in ordinary life as well as for global issues, it seemed to me anyone a bit aware of these very issues will not learn much.",0 | |
| I was really hoping to enjoy this book. There was something just not right about it. The writing was OK -- I wouldn't call Tom Perrotta a genius. The plot was fairly predictable. The only thing that surprised me was when Todd didn't take the bar exam.This was another Da Vinci Code for me -- totally overhyped and not worth my time.,0 | |

| "When I first read the book I thought it was enjoyable, but trashy. The science in it seemed pretty far fetched. But the theories outlined in the book have gained more and more scientific credence. The Pentagon has even warned of the possibility of exactly the situation described in the book and has recommended that the US prepare for it. ...",1 | |
| "I'm not an aficionado of mysteries. I make three exceptions: Robert P. Parker, Kathy Brandt, and Dana Stabenow. Stabenow, like Brandt, makes excellent use of her locations. Alaska is basically a character in each tale of sleuth Kate Shugak. Stabenow has a knack for drawing the reader into a different part of the Alaskan realm in each book, while keeping us interested in Kate's life, loves, and perils. This is another fast, enchanting read by a master of her craft.Matt Billeauthorwww.mattwriter.com",1 | |

| "I really liked the look of these shoes and looked forward to getting them. They are very heavy but, more importantly, they are uncomfortable. The lining seems skimpy and the shoe was not snug enough to stay on my foot. As I walked, they slipped off, even with socks. I love clogs but these were a disappointment.",0 | |
| "I bought this to go with my Sony DSLR A100. It works as advertised, and much cheaper than actually going through Sony. The only reason I gave it a 4 out of 5 is that the button sticks every so often and you have to pres skind of hard. But otherwise- it's been great.",1 | |
| "I flicked through this title in the bookshop, while looking for some good servlet titles. The coverage of this book is pretty shallow - for example their only mention of cookies is an API listing. Most servlet books cover cookies and session management, as well as more advanced (but related) servlet topics. I'd highly recommend ""Inside Servlets : Server-Side Programming for the Java Platform"" by Dustin R. Callaway instead.",0 | |
